Context of 2 Samuel 12:14
12For thou didst [it] secretly; but I will do this thing before all Israel and before the sun. 13And David said to Nathan, I have sinned against Jehovah. And Nathan said to David, Jehovah has also put away thy sin: thou shalt not die. Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of Jehovah to blaspheme, even the child that is born to thee shall certainly die. 15And Nathan departed to his house. And Jehovah smote the child that Urijah's wife bore to David, and it became very sick. 16And David besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night on the earth.
