2 Samuel 12:16-19

16David therefore sought God on behalf of the child. And David fasted and went in and lay all night on the ground.

17And the elders of his house stood beside him, to raise him from the ground, but he would not, nor did he eat food with them.

18On the seventh day the child died. And the servants of David were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, "Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to us. How then can we say to him the child is dead? He may do himself some harm."

19But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David understood that the child was dead. And David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead."
