2 Samuel 12:10-23

KJV_Strongs(i)
  10 H2719 Now therefore the sword H5704 shall never H5769   H5493 depart [H8799]   H1004 from thine house H6118 ; because H959 thou hast despised [H8804]   H3947 me, and hast taken [H8799]   H802 the wife H223 of Uriah H2850 the Hittite H802 to be thy wife.
  11 H559 Thus saith [H8804]   H3068 the LORD H6965 , Behold, I will raise up [H8688]   H7451 evil H1004 against thee out of thine own house H3947 , and I will take [H8804]   H802 thy wives H5869 before thine eyes H5414 , and give [H8804]   H7453 them unto thy neighbour H7901 , and he shall lie [H8804]   H802 with thy wives H5869 in the sight H8121 of this sun.
  12 H6213 For thou didst [H8804]   H5643 it secretly H6213 : but I will do [H8799]   H1697 this thing H3478 before all Israel H8121 , and before the sun.
  13 H1732 And David H559 said [H8799]   H5416 unto Nathan H2398 , I have sinned [H8804]   H3068 against the LORD H5416 . And Nathan H559 said [H8799]   H1732 unto David H3068 , The LORD H5674 also hath put away [H8689]   H2403 thy sin H4191 ; thou shalt not die [H8799]  .
  14 H657 Howbeit H1697 , because by this deed H5006 thou hast given H5006 great occasion [H8763]   H341 to the enemies [H8802]   H3068 of the LORD H5006 to blaspheme [H8765]   H1121 , the child H3209 also that is born H4191 unto thee shall surely [H8800]   H4191 die [H8799]  .
  15 H5416 And Nathan H3212 departed [H8799]   H1004 unto his house H3068 . And the LORD H5062 struck [H8799]   H3206 the child H223 that Uriah's H802 wife H3205 bare [H8804]   H1732 unto David H605 , and it was very sick [H8735]  .
  16 H1732 David H1245 therefore besought [H8762]   H430 God H5288 for the child H1732 ; and David H6684 fasted [H8799]   H6685   H935 , and went in [H8804]   H7901 , and lay [H8804]   H3885 all night [H8804]   H776 upon the earth.
  17 H2205 And the elders H1004 of his house H6965 arose [H8799]   H6965 , and went to him, to raise him up [H8687]   H776 from the earth H14 : but he would [H8804]   H1262 not, neither did he eat [H8804]   H3899 bread with them.
  18 H7637 And it came to pass on the seventh H3117 day H3206 , that the child H4191 died [H8799]   H5650 . And the servants H1732 of David H3372 feared [H8799]   H5046 to tell [H8687]   H3206 him that the child H4191 was dead [H8804]   H559 : for they said [H8804]   H3206 , Behold, while the child H2416 was yet alive H1696 , we spake [H8765]   H8085 unto him, and he would not hearken [H8804]   H6963 unto our voice H6213 : how will he then H7451 vex H6213 himself [H8804]   H559 , if we tell [H8799]   H3206 him that the child H4191 is dead [H8804]  ?
  19 H1732 But when David H7200 saw [H8799]   H5650 that his servants H3907 whispered [H8693]   H1732 , David H995 perceived [H8799]   H3206 that the child H4191 was dead [H8804]   H1732 : therefore David H559 said [H8799]   H5650 unto his servants H3206 , Is the child H4191 dead [H8804]   H559 ? And they said [H8799]   H4191 , He is dead [H8804]  .
  20 H1732 Then David H6965 arose [H8799]   H776 from the earth H7364 , and washed [H8799]   H5480 , and anointed [H8686]   H2498 himself, and changed [H8762]   H8071 his apparel H935 , and came [H8799]   H1004 into the house H3068 of the LORD H7812 , and worshipped [H8691]   H935 : then he came [H8799]   H1004 to his own house H7592 ; and when he required [H8799]   H7760 , they set [H8799]   H3899 bread H398 before him, and he did eat [H8799]  .
  21 H559 Then said [H8799]   H5650 his servants H1697 unto him, What thing H6213 is this that thou hast done [H8804]   H6684 ? thou didst fast [H8804]   H1058 and weep [H8799]   H3206 for the child H2416 , while it was alive H3206 ; but when the child H4191 was dead [H8804]   H6965 , thou didst rise [H8804]   H398 and eat [H8799]   H3899 bread.
  22 H559 And he said [H8799]   H3206 , While the child H2416 was yet alive H6684 , I fasted [H8804]   H1058 and wept [H8799]   H559 : for I said [H8804]   H3045 , Who can tell [H8802]   H3068 whether GOD H2603 will be gracious [H8804]   [H8675]   H2603   [H8762]   H3206 to me, that the child H2416 may live?
  23 H4191 But now he is dead [H8804]   H6684 , wherefore should I fast [H8802]   H3201 ? can [H8799]   H7725 I bring him back again [H8687]   H1980 ? I shall go [H8802]   H7725 to him, but he shall not return [H8799]   to me.
ERV(i) 10 Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife. 11 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun. 12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun. 13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. 14 Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. 15 And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David, and it was very sick. 16 David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth. 17 And the elders of his house arose, [and stood] beside him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them. 18 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he hearkened not unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead? 19 But when David saw that his servants whispered together, David perceived that the child was dead: and David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead. 20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel; and he came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required they set bread before him, and he did eat. 21 Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread. 22 And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who knoweth whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live? 23 But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
