2 Samuel 12:13-25 - David Repents, But The Child Dies

13 And David will say to Nathan, I sinned against Jehovah. And Nathan will say to David, Jehovah also passed over thy sin; thou shalt not die. 14 Only that despising, thou didst cause the enemies of Jehovah to despise by this thing, also the son born to thee, dying, shall die. 15 And Nathan will go to his house. And Jehovah will strike the child which Uriah's wife bare to David and he will be sick. 16 And David will seek God for the boy, and fast a fast; and he came and passed the night and lay upon the earth. 17 And the old men of his house will rise to him to lift him up from the earth; and he would not, and he ate not bread with them.

18 And it will be in the seventh day, and the child will die. And David's servants feared to announce to him that the child died: for they said, Behold, in the child being living we spake to him and he heard not to our voice, and how shall we say to him the child died, and do evil?

19 And David will see that his servants are whispering, and David will perceive that the child died: and David will say to his servants, Did the child die? and they will say, He died.

20 And David will rise from the earth and wash, and be anointed, and he will change his garments, and will go into the house of Jehovah and worship, and go to his house; and he will ask and they will set bread to him, and he will eat.

21 And his servants will say to him, What this word which thou didst? for sake of the child living thou didst fast and weep, and when the child died thou didst rise and thou wilt eat bread.

22 And he will say, The child yet living, and I fasted and wept; for I said, ho will know Jehovah will compassionate me, and the child live? 23 And now he died, wherefore thus do I fast? shall I be able to yet turn him back? I go to him, and he will not turn back to me.

24 And David will comfort Bath-Sheba his wife, and will go in to her and lie with her, and she will bear a son, and he will call his name Solomon: and Jehovah loved him. 25 And he will send by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he will call his name Jedidiah, for sake of Jehovah.
