2 Samuel 12:2 CPDV

¹  Then the Lord sent Nathan to David. And when he had come to him, he said to him: 'Two men were in one city: one wealthy, and the other poor.

²  The wealthy man had very many sheep and oxen.

³  But the poor man had nothing at all, except one little sheep, which he had bought and nourished. And she had grown up before him, together with his children, eating from his bread, and drinking from his cup, and sleeping in his bosom. And she was like a daughter to him.

⁴  But when a certain traveler had come to the wealthy man, neglecting to take from his own sheep and oxen, so that he might present a feast for that traveler, who had come to him, he took the sheep of the poor man, and he prepared a meal for the man who had come to him.'
