2 Samuel 12:2

Nathan Reproves David

¹ Then the Lord sent Nathan to David. And he came to him and said,
“There were two men in one city, the one rich and the other poor.
² “The rich man had a great many flocks and herds.
³ “But the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb
Which he bought and nourished;
And it grew up together with him and his children.
It would eat of his bread and drink of his cup and lie in his bosom,
And was like a daughter to him.
