10 Now, in every generation some of your descendants will die a violent death because you have disobeyed me and have taken Uriah's wife.
11 I swear to you that I will cause someone from your own family to bring trouble on you. You will see it when I take your wives from you and give them to another man; and he will have intercourse with them in broad daylight.
12 You sinned in secret, but I will make this happen in broad daylight for all Israel to see.’”
13 “I have sinned against the Lord,” David said.Nathan replied, “The Lord forgives you; you will not die.
14 But because you have shown such contempt for the Lord in doing this, your child will die.”
15 Then Nathan went home.The Lord caused the child that Uriah's wife had borne to David to become very sick.
16 David prayed to God that the child would get well. He refused to eat anything, and every night he went into his room and spent the night lying on the floor.
