2 Samuel 12:1-4
1Then the LordH3068 sentH7971 1NathanH5416 to DavidH1732. And 2he cameH935 to him and 3saidH559, “There were twoH8147 menH376 in oneH259 cityH5892, the oneH259 richH6223 and the otherH259 poorH7326.2The richH6223 manH6223 hadH1961 a greatH3966 manyH7235 flocksH6629 and herdsH1241.3But the poorH7326 man had nothingH369H3605 exceptH3588H518 4oneH259 littleH6996 eweH3535 lambH3535 WhichH834 he boughtH7069 and nourishedH2421; And it grewH1431 up togetherH3164 with him and his childrenH1121. It would eatH398 of his 5breadH6595 and drinkH8354 of his cupH3563 and lieH7901 in his bosomH2436, And was like a daughterH1323 to him.4Now a travelerH1982 cameH935 to the richH6223 manH376, And he 6was unwillingH2550 to takeH3947 from his own flockH6629 or his own herdH1241, To prepareH6213 for the wayfarerH732 who had comeH935 to him; Rather he tookH3947 the poorH7326 man’sH376 eweH3535 lambH3535 and preparedH6213 it for the manH376 who had comeH935 to him.”
