2 Samuel 12:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² You had physical relations with Bathsheba in secret. But I will do this so all the people of Israel can see it.’”

¹³ Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.”

Nathan answered, “The Lord has taken away your sin. You will not die. ¹⁴ But what you did caused the Lord’s enemies to lose all respect for him. For this reason the son who was born to you will die.”
