2 Samuel 11:25
Then David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the messenger{H4397}, Thus shalt thou say{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joab{H3097}, Let not this thing{H1697} displease{H3415}{(H8799)}{H5869} thee, for the sword{H2719} devoureth{H398}{(H8799)} one as well as another{H2090}: make thy battle{H4421} more strong{H2388}{(H8685)} against the city{H5892}, and overthrow{H2040}{(H8798)} it: and encourage{H2388}{(H8761)} thou him.
