2 Samuel 12:7-14

7And NathanH5416 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou art the manH376. Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, and I deliveredH5337 thee out of the handH3027 of SaulH7586; 8And I gaveH5414 thee thy master’sH113 houseH1004, and thy master’sH113 wivesH802 into thy bosomH2436, and gaveH5414 thee the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and of JudahH3063; and if that had been too littleH4592, I would moreover have givenH3254 unto thee suchH2007 and such thingsH2007. 9Wherefore hast thou despisedH959 the commandmentH1697 of YhwhH3068, to doH6213 evilH7451 in his sightH5869? thou hast killedH5221 UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 with the swordH2719, and hast takenH3947 his wifeH802 to be thy wifeH802, and hast slainH2026 him with the swordH2719 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. 10Now therefore the swordH2719 shall neverH5769H5704 departH5493 from thine houseH1004; becauseH6118 thou hast despisedH959 me, and hast takenH3947 the wifeH802 of UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 to be thy wifeH802. 11Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Behold, I will raise upH6965 evilH7451 against thee out of thine own houseH1004, and I will takeH3947 thy wivesH802 before thine eyesH5869, and giveH5414 them unto thy neighbourH7453, and he shall lieH7901 with thy wivesH802 in the sightH5869 of this sunH8121. 12For thou didstH6213 it secretlyH5643: but I will doH6213 this thingH1697 before all IsraelH3478, and before the sunH8121. 13And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto NathanH5416, I have sinnedH2398 against YhwhH3068. And NathanH5416 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, YhwhH3068 also hath put awayH5674 thy sinH2403; thou shalt not dieH4191. 14HowbeitH657, because by this deedH1697 thou hast given great occasionH5006 to the enemiesH341 of YhwhH3068 to blasphemeH5006, the childH1121 also that is bornH3209 unto thee shall surelyH4191 dieH4191.
