2 Samuel 12:21-23

21Then his servants said to him, “What is this thing that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was 1alive; but when the child died, you got up and ate food.” 22And he said, “While the child was still alive, 2I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘3Who knows, the Lord may be gracious to me, and the child may live.’ 23But now he has died; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? 4I am going to him, but 5he will not return to me.”
