And the LORD
sent
Nathan
unto David.
And he came
unto him, and said
unto him, There were two
men
in one
city;
the one
rich,
and the other
poor.
say
The rich
man had exceeding
many
flocks
and herds:
But the poor
man had nothing, save one
little
ewe lamb,
which he had bought
and nourished up:
and it grew up
together
with him, and with his children;
it did eat
of his own meat,
and drank
of his own cup,
and lay
in his bosom,
and was unto him as a daughter.

And there came
a traveller
unto the rich
man,
and he spared
to take
of his own flock
and of his own herd,
to dress
for the wayfaring man
that was come
unto him; but took
the poor
man's
lamb,
and dressed
it for the man
that was come
to him.

And David's
anger
was greatly
kindled
against the man;
and he said
to Nathan,
As the LORD
liveth,
the man
that hath done
this thing shall surely
die:
And he shall restore
the lamb
fourfold,
because
he did
this thing,
and because
he had no pity.
And Nathan
said
to David,
Thou art the man.
Thus saith
the LORD
God
of Israel,
I anointed
thee king
over Israel,
and I delivered
thee out of the hand
of Saul;
say
And I gave
thee thy master's
house,
and thy master's
wives
into thy bosom,
and gave
thee the house
of Israel
and of Judah;
and if that had been too little,
I would moreover have given
unto thee such
and such things.
Wherefore hast thou despised
the commandment
of the LORD,
to do
evil
in his sight?
thou hast killed
Uriah
the Hittite
with the sword,
and hast taken
his wife
to be thy wife,
and hast slain
him with the sword
of the children
of Ammon.

Now therefore the sword
shall never
depart
from thine house;
because
thou hast despised
me, and hast taken
the wife
of Uriah
the Hittite
to be thy wife.

Thus saith
the LORD,
Behold, I will raise up
evil
against thee out of thine own house,
and I will take
thy wives
before thine eyes,
and give
them unto thy neighbour,
and he shall lie
with thy wives
in the sight
of this sun.
For thou didst
it secretly:
but I will do
this thing
before all Israel,
and before the sun.
And David
said
unto Nathan,
I have sinned
against the LORD.
And Nathan
said
unto David,
The LORD
also hath put away
thy sin;
thou shalt not die.
Howbeit,
because by this deed
thou hast given
great occasion
to the enemies
of the LORD
to blaspheme,
the child
also that is born
unto thee shall surely
die.
And Nathan
departed
unto his house.
And the LORD
struck
the child
that Uriah's
wife
bare
unto David,
and it was very sick.

David
therefore besought
God
for the child;
and David
fasted,
and went in,
and lay
all night
upon the earth.
And the elders
of his house
arose,
and went to him, to raise him up
from the earth:
but he would
not, neither did he eat
bread
with them.
And it came to pass on the seventh
day,
that the child
died.
And the servants
of David
feared
to tell
him that the child
was dead:
for they said,
Behold, while the child
was yet alive,
we spake
unto him, and he would not hearken
unto our voice:
how will he then
vex
himself,
if we tell
him that the child
is dead?

But when David
saw
that his servants
whispered,
David
perceived
that the child
was dead:
therefore David
said
unto his servants,
Is the child
dead?
And they said,
He is dead.

Then David
arose
from the earth,
and washed,
and anointed
himself, and changed
his apparel,
and came
into the house
of the LORD,
and worshipped:
then he came
to his own house;
and when he required,
they set
bread
before him, and he did eat.
Then said
his servants
unto him, What thing
is this that thou hast done?
thou didst fast
and weep
for the child,
while it was alive;
but when the child
was dead,
thou didst rise
and eat
bread.
say
And he said,
While the child
was yet alive,
I fasted
and wept:
for I said,
Who can tell
whether GOD
will be gracious
to me, that the child
may live?
But now he is dead,
wherefore should I fast?
can
I bring him back again?
I shall go
to him, but he shall not return
to me.
And David
comforted
Bathsheba
his wife,
and went in
unto her, and lay
with her: and she bare
a son,
and he called
his name
Solomon:
and the LORD
loved
him.

And he sent
by the hand
of Nathan
the prophet;
and he called
his name
Jedidiah,
because of the LORD.
And Joab
fought
against Rabbah
of the children
of Ammon,
and took
the royal
city.
And Joab
sent
messengers
to David,
and said,
I have fought
against Rabbah,
and have taken
the city
of waters.
Now therefore gather
the rest
of the people
together,
and encamp
against the city,
and take
it: lest I take
the city,
and it be called
after my name.

And David
gathered
all the people
together,
and went
to Rabbah,
and fought
against it, and took
it.
And he took
their king's
crown
from off his head,
the weight
whereof was a talent
of gold
with the precious
stones:
and it was set on David's
head.
And he brought forth
the spoil
of the city
in great
abundance.

And he brought forth
the people
that were therein, and put
them under saws,
and under harrows
of iron,
and under axes
of iron,
and made them pass
through the brickkiln:
and thus did
he unto all the cities
of the children
of Ammon.
So David
and all the people
returned
unto Jerusalem.
