2 Samuel 12:13-18

13And DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416, I have sinnedH2398 against Jehovah. And NathanH5416 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Jehovah has alsoH1571 putH4191 awayH5674 thy sinH2398: thou shalt not dieH4191.

14Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemiesH341 of Jehovah to blaspheme, even the child that is born to thee shall certainly dieH4191.

15And NathanH5416 departed to his houseH1004. And Jehovah smote the childH3206 that Urijah's wifeH802 boreH3205 to DavidH1732, and it became very sick.

16And DavidH1732 besought 1GodH430 for the child; and DavidH1732 fastedH6684, and wentH935 in, and layH7901 all night on the earthH776.

17And the eldersH2205 of his houseH1004 aroseH6965, [and went] to him, to raiseH6965 him up from the earthH776; but he wouldH14 not, and he ate no breadH3899 with them.

18And it came to pass on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that the childH3206 diedH4191. And the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 fearedH3372 to tellH5046 him that the childH3206 wasH1961 deadH4191; for they saidH559, Behold, while the childH3206 wasH1961 yet aliveH2416, we spokeH1696 to him, and he would not hearken to our voiceH6963; and howH349 shall we sayH559 to him, The childH3206 is deadH4191? he may do some harmH7451.
