10 Because of that, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite as your own, the sword will never leave your own house.
11 "This is what the Lord says: I am making trouble come against you from inside your own family. Before your very eyes I will take your wives away and give them to your friend, and he will have sex with your wives in broad daylight.
12 You did what you did secretly, but I will do what I am doing before all Israel in the light of day."
13 "I’ve sinned against the Lord!" David said to Nathan."The Lord has removed your sin," Nathan replied to David. "You won’t die.
14 However, because you have utterly disrespected the Lord by doing this, the son born to you will definitely die."
15 Then Nathan went home.The Lord struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne for David, and he became very sick.
16 David begged God for the boy. He fasted and spent the night sleeping on the ground.
