2 Samuel 11:22
Thomson 1808
So Joab’s messenger went to Jerusalem to the king, and when he arrived and told David all that Joab mentioned to him—all the circumstances of the battle, David was inflamed with wrath against Joab, and said to the messenger, Why did you approach so near the city to fight? Did you not know that you would be smitten from the wall? Who smote Abimelech, son of Jerobaal? Did not a woman throw a millstone upon him from the wall, so that he died at Thamasi? Why did you approach so near the wall?
Brenton 1851
And the messenger of Joab went to the king to Jerusalem, and he came and reported to David all that Joab told him, all the affairs of the war. And David was very angry with Joab, and said to the messenger, Why did ye draw nigh to the wall to fight? knew ye not that ye would be wounded from off the wall? Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast upon him a piece of millstone from the wall, and he died in Thamasi? why did ye draw near to the wall?

Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ ἄγγελος Ἰωὰβ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ παρεγένετο καὶ ἀπήγγειλε τῷ Δαυὶδ πάντα ὅσα ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ Ἰωὰβ, πάντα τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ πολέμου· καὶ ἐθυμώθη Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἰωὰβ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, ἱνατί προσηγάγετε πρὸς τὴν πόλιν τοῦ πολεμῆσαι; οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὅτι πληγήσεσθε ἀπὸ τοῦ τείχους; τίς ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱὸν Ἱεροβάαλ; οὐχὶ γυνὴ ἔῤῥιψεν ἐπʼ αὐτὸν κλάσμα μύλου ἀπὸ τοῦ τείχους, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν Θαμασί; ἱνατί προσηγάγετε πρὸς τὸ τεῖχος;
