2 Samuel 12:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ So Nathan departed to his house. And the LORD struck the child whom Uriah’s wife bore to David. And it was sick.

¹⁶ David, therefore, sought God for the child and fasted and went in and lay all night upon the earth.

¹⁷ Then the elders of his house arose to come to him, and to cause him to rise from the ground. But he would not. Nor did he eat food with them.
