2 Samuel 12:16-22

16DavidH1732 therefore besought GodH430 for the childH5288; and DavidH1732 fastedH6684, and wentH935 in, and layH7901 allH7901 night uponH935 the earthH776.

17And the eldersH2205 of his houseH1004 aroseH6965, and stoodH6965 besideH5921 him, to raiseH6965 him upH6965 from the earthH776: but he would notH3808, neitherH3808 didH3808 he eat breadH3899 with them.

18And it cameH1961 to passH1961 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that the childH3206 diedH4191. And the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 fearedH3372 to tellH5046 him that the childH3206 was deadH4191: for they saidH559, BeholdH2009, whileH1961 the childH3206 was yet aliveH2416, weH3588 spake unto him, and he hearkened notH3808 unto our voiceH6963: howH349 will he then vex himselfH3117, ifH3588 weH3588 tellH5046 him that the childH3206 is deadH4191?

19But when DavidH1732 sawH7200 that his servantsH5650 whispered together, DavidH1732 perceivedH7200 that the childH3206 was deadH4191: and DavidH1732 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, Is the childH3206 deadH4191? And they saidH559, He is deadH4191.

20Then DavidH1732 aroseH6965 from the earthH776, and washedH7364, and anointed himselfH7812, and changedH2498 his apparel; and he cameH935 intoH413 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and worshipped: then he cameH935 to his own houseH1004; and when he requiredH7760 they setH7760 breadH3899 beforeH413 him, and he didH7812 eatH398.

21Then saidH559 his servantsH5650 unto him, WhatH4100 thingH1697 is this that thou hast doneH6213? thou didst fastH6684 and weepH1058 for the childH3206, whileH834 it was aliveH2416; but when the childH3206 was deadH4191, thou didst riseH6965 and eatH398 breadH3899.

22And he saidH559, WhileH5750 the childH3206 was yet aliveH2416, I fastedH6684 and weptH1058: for I saidH559, Who knoweth whether the LORDH3068 will notH3588 be gracious to meH2603, that the childH3206 may liveH2416?
