"Nonetheless, because you have treated the LORD with such contempt in this matter, the son who has been born to you will certainly die.”"
— 2 Samuel 12:14, NET Bible
“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.”
“Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of Jehovah to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. ”
“However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to Yahweh's enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."”
“Nevertheless, because thou hast given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, for this thing, the child that is born to thee, shall surely die.”
“But still, because you have had no respect for the Lord, death will certainly overtake the child who has newly come to birth.”
“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.”
This is what the LORD has said:‘I am about to bring disaster on you from inside your own household! Right before your eyes I will take your wives and hand them over to your companion. He will go to bed with your wives in broad daylight!
Although you have acted in secret, I will do this thing before all Israel, and in broad daylight.’”
Then David exclaimed to Nathan,“I have sinned against the LORD!” Nathan replied to David,“Yes, and the LORD has forgiven your sin. You are not going to die.
Nonetheless, because you have treated the LORD with such contempt in this matter, the son who has been born to you will certainly die.”
Then Nathan went to his home. The LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and the child became very ill.
Then David prayed to God for the child and fasted. He would even go and spend the night lying on the ground.
The elders of his house stood over him and tried to lift him from the ground, but he was unwilling, and refused to eat food with them.
