12 For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.''
13 David said to Nathan, 'I have sinned against Yahweh.' Nathan said to David, 'Yahweh also has put away your sin. You will not die.
14 However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to Yahweh's enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you shall surely die.'
15 Nathan departed to his house. Yahweh struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night on the earth.
