1  And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ sent^{7971 853} Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ unto⁴¹³ David.¹⁷³² And he came⁹³⁵ unto⁴¹³ him, and said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, There were¹⁹⁶¹ two⁸¹⁴⁷ men³⁷⁶ in one²⁵⁹ city;⁵⁸⁹² the one²⁵⁹ rich,⁶²²³ and the other²⁵⁹ poor.⁷³²⁶

2  The rich⁶²²³ man had¹⁹⁶¹ exceeding³⁹⁶⁶ many⁷²³⁵ flocks⁶⁶²⁹ and herds:¹²⁴¹

3  But the poor⁷³²⁶ man had nothing,^{369 3605} save^{3588 518} one²⁵⁹ little⁶⁹⁹⁶ ewe lamb,³⁵³⁵ which⁸³⁴ he had¹⁹⁶¹ bought⁷⁰⁶⁹ and nourished up:²⁴²¹ and it grew up¹⁴³¹ together³¹⁶² with⁵⁹⁷³ him, and with⁵⁹⁷³ his children;¹¹²¹ it did eat³⁹⁸ of his own meat,^{4480 6595} and drank⁸³⁵⁴ of his own cup,^{4480 3563} and lay⁷⁹⁰¹ in his bosom,²⁴³⁶ and was¹⁹⁶¹ unto him as a daughter.¹³²³

4  And there came⁹³⁵ a traveler¹⁹⁸² unto the rich⁶²²³ man,³⁷⁶ and he spared²⁵⁵⁰ to take³⁹⁴⁷ of his own flock^{4480 6629} and of his own herd,^{4480 1241} to dress⁶²¹³ for the wayfaring man⁷³² that was come⁹³⁵ unto him; but took³⁹⁴⁷ the poor⁷³²⁶ man's^{376 853} lamb,³⁵³⁵ and dressed⁶²¹³ it for the man³⁷⁶ that was come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ him.

5  And David's¹⁷³² anger⁶³⁹ was greatly³⁹⁶⁶ kindled²⁷³⁴ against the man;³⁷⁶ and he said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ Nathan,⁵⁴¹⁶ As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ the man³⁷⁶ that hath done⁶²¹³ this²⁰⁶³ thing shall surely die:^{3588 1121 4194}

6  And he shall restore⁷⁹⁹⁹ the lamb³⁵³⁵ fourfold,⁷⁰⁶ because^{6118 834} he did^{6213 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ thing,¹⁶⁹⁷ and because^{5921 834} he had no³⁸⁰⁸ pity.²⁵⁵⁰

7  And Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² Thou⁸⁵⁹ art the man.³⁷⁶ Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ I⁵⁹⁵ anointed⁴⁸⁸⁶ thee king⁴⁴²⁸ over⁵⁹²¹ Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and I⁵⁹⁵ delivered⁵³³⁷ thee out of the hand^{4480 3027} of Saul;⁷⁵⁸⁶

8  And I gave⁵⁴¹⁴ thee ⁸⁵³ thy master's¹¹³ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and thy master's¹¹³ wives⁸⁰² into thy bosom,²⁴³⁶ and gave⁵⁴¹⁴ thee ⁸⁵³ the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ and of Judah;³⁰⁶³ and if⁵¹⁸ that had been too little,⁴⁵⁹² I would moreover have given³²⁵⁴ unto thee such²⁰⁰⁷ and such²⁰⁰⁷ things.

9  Wherefore⁴⁰⁶⁹ hast thou despised^{959 853} the commandment¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ to do⁶²¹³ evil⁷⁴⁵¹ in his sight?⁵⁸⁶⁹ thou hast killed^{5221 853} Uriah²²³ the Hittite²⁸⁵⁰ with the sword,²⁷¹⁹ and hast taken³⁹⁴⁷ his wife⁸⁰² to be thy wife,⁸⁰² and hast slain²⁰²⁶ him with the sword²⁷¹⁹ of the children¹¹²¹ of Ammon.⁵⁹⁸³

10  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore the sword²⁷¹⁹ shall never^{3808 5704 5769} depart⁵⁴⁹³ from thine house;^{4480 1004} because^{6118 3588} thou hast despised⁹⁵⁹ me, and hast taken^{3947 853} the wife⁸⁰² of Uriah²²³ the Hittite²⁸⁵⁰ to be¹⁹⁶¹ thy wife.⁸⁰²

11  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I will raise up⁶⁹⁶⁵ evil⁷⁴⁵¹ against⁵⁹²¹ thee out of thine own house,^{4480 1004} and I will take^{3947 853} thy wives⁸⁰² before thine eyes,⁵⁸⁶⁹ and give⁵⁴¹⁴ them unto thy neighbor,⁷⁴⁵³ and he shall lie⁷⁹⁰¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ thy wives⁸⁰² in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of this²⁰⁶³ sun.⁸¹²¹

12  For³⁵⁸⁸ thou⁸⁵⁹ didst⁶²¹³ it secretly:⁵⁶⁴³ but I⁵⁸⁹ will do^{6213 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ thing¹⁶⁹⁷ before⁵⁰⁴⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and before⁵⁰⁴⁸ the sun.⁸¹²¹

13  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Nathan,⁵⁴¹⁶ I have sinned²³⁹⁸ against the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸ And Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² The LORD³⁰⁶⁸ also¹⁵⁷¹ hath put away⁵⁶⁷⁴ thy sin;²⁴⁰³ thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ die.⁴¹⁹¹

14  Howbeit,⁶⁵⁷ because³⁵⁸⁸ by this²⁰⁸⁸ deed¹⁶⁹⁷ thou hast given great occasion^{5006 853} to the enemies³⁴¹ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ to blaspheme,⁵⁰⁰⁶ the child¹¹²¹ also¹⁵⁷¹ that is born³²⁰⁹ unto thee shall surely die.^{4191 4191}

15  And Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ departed¹⁹⁸⁰ unto⁴¹³ his house.¹⁰⁰⁴ And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ struck^{5062 853} the child³²⁰⁶ that⁸³⁴ Uriah's²²³ wife⁸⁰² bore³²⁰⁵ unto David,¹⁷³² and it was very sick.⁶⁰⁵

16  David¹⁷³² therefore besought^{1245 853} God⁴³⁰ for¹¹⁵⁷ the child;⁵²⁸⁸ and David¹⁷³² fasted,^{6684 6685} and went⁹³⁵ in, and lay⁷⁹⁰¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ night³⁸⁸⁵ upon the earth.⁷⁷⁶

17  And the elders²²⁰⁵ of his house¹⁰⁰⁴ arose,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and went to⁵⁹²¹ him, to raise him up⁶⁹⁶⁵ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ the earth:⁷⁷⁶ but he would¹⁴ not,³⁸⁰⁸ neither³⁸⁰⁸ did he eat¹²⁶² bread³⁸⁹⁹ with⁸⁵⁴ them.

18  And it came to pass¹⁹⁶¹ on the seventh⁷⁶³⁷ day,³¹¹⁷ that the child³²⁰⁶ died.⁴¹⁹¹ And the servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ of David¹⁷³² feared³³⁷² to tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ him that³⁵⁸⁸ the child³²⁰⁶ was dead:⁴¹⁹¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ they said,⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ while the child³²⁰⁶ was¹⁹⁶¹ yet alive,²⁴¹⁶ we spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ unto⁴¹³ him, and he would not³⁸⁰⁸ hearken⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto our voice:⁶⁹⁶³ how³⁴⁹ will he then vex^{6213 7451} himself, if we tell^{559 413} him that the child³²⁰⁶ is dead?⁴¹⁹¹

19  But when David¹⁷³² saw⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ his servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ whispered,³⁹⁰⁷ David¹⁷³² perceived⁹⁹⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ the child³²⁰⁶ was dead:⁴¹⁹¹ therefore David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ his servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ Is the child³²⁰⁶ dead?⁴¹⁹¹ And they said,⁵⁵⁹ He is dead.⁴¹⁹¹

20  Then David¹⁷³² arose⁶⁹⁶⁵ from the earth,^{4480 776} and washed,⁷³⁶⁴ and anointed⁵⁴⁸⁰ himself, and changed²⁴⁹⁸ his apparel,⁸⁰⁷¹ and came⁹³⁵ into the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and worshiped:⁷⁸¹² then he came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ his own house;¹⁰⁰⁴ and when he required,⁷⁵⁹² they set⁷⁷⁶⁰ bread³⁸⁹⁹ before him, and he did eat.³⁹⁸

21  Then said⁵⁵⁹ his servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ unto⁴¹³ him, What⁴¹⁰⁰ thing¹⁶⁹⁷ is this²⁰⁸⁸ that⁸³⁴ thou hast done?⁶²¹³ thou didst fast⁶⁶⁸⁴ and weep¹⁰⁵⁸ for the child,³²⁰⁶ while⁵⁶⁶⁸ it was alive;²⁴¹⁶ but when⁸³⁴ the child³²⁰⁶ was dead,⁴¹⁹¹ thou didst rise⁶⁹⁶⁵ and eat³⁹⁸ bread.³⁸⁹⁹

22  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ While the child³²⁰⁶ was yet⁵⁷⁵⁰ alive,²⁴¹⁶ I fasted⁶⁶⁸⁴ and wept:¹⁰⁵⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ I said,⁵⁵⁹ Who⁴³¹⁰ can tell³⁰⁴⁵ whether GOD³⁰⁶⁸ will be gracious²⁶⁰³ to me, that the child³²⁰⁶ may live?²⁴¹⁶

23  But now⁶²⁵⁸ he is dead,⁴¹⁹¹ wherefore^{4100 2088} should I⁵⁸⁹ fast?⁶⁶⁸⁴ can³²⁰¹ I bring him back⁷⁷²⁵ again?⁵⁷⁵⁰ I⁵⁸⁹ shall go¹⁹⁸⁰ to⁴¹³ him, but he¹⁹³¹ shall not³⁸⁰⁸ return⁷⁷²⁵ to⁴¹³ me.

24  And David¹⁷³² comforted^{5162 853} Bath-sheba¹³³⁹ his wife,⁸⁰² and went⁹³⁵ in unto⁴¹³ her, and lay⁷⁹⁰¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ her: and she bore³²⁰⁵ a son,¹¹²¹ and he called^{7121 853} his name⁸⁰³⁴ Solomon:⁸⁰¹⁰ and the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ loved¹⁵⁷ him.

25  And he sent⁷⁹⁷¹ by the hand³⁰²⁷ of Nathan⁵⁴¹⁶ the prophet;⁵⁰³⁰ and he called^{7121 853} his name⁸⁰³⁴ Jedidiah,³⁰⁴¹ because⁵⁶⁶⁸ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

26  And Joab³⁰⁹⁷ fought³⁸⁹⁸ against Rabbah⁷²³⁷ of the children¹¹²¹ of Ammon,⁵⁹⁸³ and took^{3920 853} the royal⁴⁴¹⁰ city.⁵⁸⁹²

27  And Joab³⁰⁹⁷ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ messengers⁴³⁹⁷ to⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² and said,⁵⁵⁹ I have fought³⁸⁹⁸ against Rabbah,⁷²³⁷ and¹⁵⁷¹ have taken^{3920 853} the city⁵⁸⁹² of waters.⁴³²⁵

28  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore gather^{622 853} the rest³⁴⁹⁹ of the people⁵⁹⁷¹ together, and encamp²⁵⁸³ against⁵⁹²¹ the city,⁵⁸⁹² and take³⁹²⁰ it: lest⁶⁴³⁵ I⁵⁸⁹ take^{3920 853} the city,⁵⁸⁹² and it be called⁷¹²¹ after⁵⁹²¹ my name.⁸⁰³⁴

29  And David¹⁷³² gathered^{622 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ together, and went¹⁹⁸⁰ to Rabbah,⁷²³⁷ and fought³⁸⁹⁸ against it, and took³⁹²⁰ it.

30  And he took^{3947 853} their king's⁴⁴²⁸ crown⁵⁸⁵⁰ from off^{4480 5921} his head,⁷²¹⁸ the weight⁴⁹⁴⁸ whereof was a talent³⁶⁰³ of gold²⁰⁹¹ with the precious³³⁶⁸ stones:⁶⁸ and it was¹⁹⁶¹ set on⁵⁹²¹ David's¹⁷³² head.⁷²¹⁸ And he brought forth³³¹⁸ the spoil⁷⁹⁹⁸ of the city⁵⁸⁹² in great³⁹⁶⁶ abundance.⁷²³⁵

31  And he brought forth³³¹⁸ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ that⁸³⁴ were therein, and put⁷⁷⁶⁰ them under saws,⁴⁰⁵⁰ and under harrows²⁷⁵⁷ of iron,¹²⁷⁰ and under axes⁴⁰³⁷ of iron,¹²⁷⁰ and made them pass through^{5674 853} the brickkiln:⁴⁴⁰⁴ and thus³⁶⁵¹ did⁶²¹³ he unto all³⁶⁰⁵ the cities⁵⁸⁹² of the children¹¹²¹ of Ammon.⁵⁹⁸³ So David¹⁷³² and all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ returned⁷⁷²⁵ unto Jerusalem.³³⁸⁹

1 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν κύριος τὸν Ναθαν τὸν προφήτην πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ δύο ἦσαν ἄνδρες ἐν πόλει μιᾷ εἷς πλούσιος καὶ εἷς πένης

2 καὶ τῷ πλουσίῳ ἦν ποίμνια καὶ βουκόλια πολλὰ σφόδρα

3 καὶ τῷ πένητι οὐδὲν ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἀμνὰς μία μικρά ἣν ἐκτήσατο καὶ περιεποιήσατο καὶ ἐξέθρεψεν αὐτήν καὶ ἡδρύνθη μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό ἐκ τοῦ ἄρτου αὐτοῦ ἤσθιεν καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ποτηρίου αὐτοῦ ἔπινεν καὶ ἐν τῷ κόλπῳ αὐτοῦ ἐκάθευδεν καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ ὡς θυγάτηρ

4 καὶ ἦλθεν πάροδος τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ πλουσίῳ καὶ ἐφείσατο λαβεῖν ἐκ τῶν ποιμνίων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν βουκολίων αὐτοῦ τοῦ ποιῆσαι τῷ ξένῳ ὁδοιπόρῳ ἐλθόντι πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν ἀμνάδα τοῦ πένητος καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὴν τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ ἐλθόντι πρὸς αὐτόν

5 καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργῇ Δαυιδ σφόδρα τῷ ἀνδρί καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Ναθαν ζῇ κύριος ὅτι υἱὸς θανάτου ὁ ἀνὴρ ὁ ποιήσας τοῦτο

6 καὶ τὴν ἀμνάδα ἀποτείσει ἑπταπλασίονα ἀνθ᾽ ὧν ὅτι ἐποίησεν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο καὶ περὶ οὗ οὐκ ἐφείσατο

7 καὶ εἶπεν Ναθαν πρὸς Δαυιδ σὺ εἶ ὁ ἀνὴρ ὁ ποιήσας τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἐγώ εἰμι ἔχρισά σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἐρρυσάμην σε ἐκ χειρὸς Σαουλ

8 καὶ ἔδωκά σοι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ κυρίου σου καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας τοῦ κυρίου σου ἐν τῷ κόλπῳ σου καὶ ἔδωκά σοι τὸν οἶκον Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα καὶ εἰ μικρόν ἐστιν προσθήσω σοι κατὰ ταῦτα

9 τί ὅτι ἐφαύλισας τὸν λόγον κυρίου τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ τὸν Ουριαν τὸν Χετταῖον ἐπάταξας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ ἔλαβες σεαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα καὶ αὐτὸν ἀπέκτεινας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ υἱῶν Αμμων

10 καὶ νῦν οὐκ ἀποστήσεται ῥομφαία ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου σου ἕως αἰῶνος ἀνθ᾽ ὧν ὅτι ἐξουδένωσάς με καὶ ἔλαβες τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ Ουριου τοῦ Χετταίου τοῦ εἶναί σοι εἰς γυναῖκα

11 τάδε λέγει κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξεγείρω ἐπὶ σὲ κακὰ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου σου καὶ λήμψομαι τὰς γυναῖκάς σου κατ᾽ ὀφθαλμούς σου καὶ δώσω τῷ πλησίον σου καὶ κοιμηθήσεται μετὰ τῶν γυναικῶν σου ἐναντίον τοῦ ἡλίου τούτου

12 ὅτι σὺ ἐποίησας κρυβῇ κἀγὼ ποιήσω τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ἐναντίον παντὸς Ισραηλ καὶ ἀπέναντι τούτου τοῦ ἡλίου

13 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τῷ Ναθαν ἡμάρτηκα τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν Ναθαν πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ κύριος παρεβίβασεν τὸ ἁμάρτημά σου οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς

14 πλὴν ὅτι παροξύνων παρώξυνας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς κυρίου ἐν τῷ ῥήματι τούτῳ καί γε ὁ υἱός σου ὁ τεχθείς σοι θανάτῳ ἀποθανεῖται

15 καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ναθαν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθραυσεν κύριος τὸ παιδίον ὃ ἔτεκεν ἡ γυνὴ Ουριου τῷ Δαυιδ καὶ ἠρρώστησεν

16 καὶ ἐζήτησεν Δαυιδ τὸν θεὸν περὶ τοῦ παιδαρίου καὶ ἐνήστευσεν Δαυιδ νηστείαν καὶ εἰσῆλθεν καὶ ηὐλίσθη ἐν σάκκῳ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

17 καὶ ἀνέστησαν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐγεῖραι αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν καὶ οὐ συνέφαγεν αὐτοῖς ἄρτον

18 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ καὶ ἀπέθανε τὸ παιδάριον καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν οἱ δοῦλοι Δαυιδ ἀναγγεῖλαι αὐτῷ ὅτι τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον ὅτι εἶπαν ἰδοὺ ἐν τῷ ἔτι τὸ παιδάριον ζῆν ἐλαλήσαμεν πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσεν τῆς φωνῆς ἡμῶν καὶ πῶς εἴπωμεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὅτι τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον καὶ ποιήσει κακά

19 καὶ συνῆκεν Δαυιδ ὅτι οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ψιθυρίζουσιν καὶ ἐνόησεν Δαυιδ ὅτι τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ εἰ τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον καὶ εἶπαν τέθνηκεν

20 καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ ἐκ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐλούσατο καὶ ἠλείψατο καὶ ἤλλαξεν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ καὶ ᾔτησεν ἄρτον φαγεῖν καὶ παρέθηκαν αὐτῷ ἄρτον καὶ ἔφαγεν

21 καὶ εἶπαν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτόν τί τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ὃ ἐποίησας ἕνεκα τοῦ παιδαρίου ἔτι ζῶντος ἐνήστευες καὶ ἔκλαιες καὶ ἠγρύπνεις καὶ ἡνίκα ἀπέθανεν τὸ παιδάριον ἀνέστης καὶ ἔφαγες ἄρτον καὶ πέπωκας

22 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ ἐν τῷ τὸ παιδάριον ἔτι ζῆν ἐνήστευσα καὶ ἔκλαυσα ὅτι εἶπα τίς οἶδεν εἰ ἐλεήσει με κύριος καὶ ζήσεται τὸ παιδάριον

23 καὶ νῦν τέθνηκεν ἵνα τί τοῦτο ἐγὼ νηστεύω μὴ δυνήσομαι ἐπιστρέψαι αὐτὸ ἔτι ἐγὼ πορεύσομαι πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ἀναστρέψει πρός με

24 καὶ παρεκάλεσεν Δαυιδ Βηρσαβεε τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὴν καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετ᾽ αὐτῆς καὶ συνέλαβεν καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱόν καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Σαλωμων καὶ κύριος ἠγάπησεν αὐτόν

25 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ Ναθαν τοῦ προφήτου καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ιδεδι ἕνεκεν κυρίου

26 καὶ ἐπολέμησεν Ιωαβ ἐν Ραββαθ υἱῶν Αμμων καὶ κατέλαβεν τὴν πόλιν τῆς βασιλείας

27 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ιωαβ ἀγγέλους πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν ἐπολέμησα ἐν Ραββαθ καὶ κατελαβόμην τὴν πόλιν τῶν ὑδάτων

28 καὶ νῦν συνάγαγε τὸ κατάλοιπον τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ παρέμβαλε ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν καὶ προκαταλαβοῦ αὐτήν ἵνα μὴ προκαταλάβωμαι ἐγὼ τὴν πόλιν καὶ κληθῇ τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐπ᾽ αὐτήν

29 καὶ συνήγαγεν Δαυιδ πάντα τὸν λαὸν καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Ραββαθ καὶ ἐπολέμησεν ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ κατελάβετο αὐτήν

30 καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν στέφανον Μελχολ τοῦ βασιλέως αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁ σταθμὸς αὐτοῦ τάλαντον χρυσίου καὶ λίθου τιμίου καὶ ἦν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς Δαυιδ καὶ σκῦλα τῆς πόλεως ἐξήνεγκεν πολλὰ σφόδρα

31 καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν ὄντα ἐν αὐτῇ ἐξήγαγεν καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ πρίονι καὶ ἐν τοῖς τριβόλοις τοῖς σιδηροῖς καὶ διήγαγεν αὐτοὺς διὰ τοῦ πλινθείου καὶ οὕτως ἐποίησεν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν υἱῶν Αμμων καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Δαυιδ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἰς Ιερουσαλημ

1 Misit ergo Dominus Nathan ad David: qui cum venisset ad eum, dixit ei: Duo viri erant in civitate una, unus dives, et alter pauper.

2 Dives habebat oves et boves plurimos valde.

3 Pauper autem nihil habebat omnino, præter ovem unam parvulam quam emerat et nutrierat, et quæ creverat apud eum cum filiis ejus simul, de pane illius comedens, et de calice ejus bibens, et in sinu illius dormiens: eratque illi sicut filia.

4 Cum autem peregrinus quidam venisset ad divitem, parcens ille sumere de ovibus et de bobus suis, ut exhiberet convivium peregrino illi qui venerat ad se, tulit ovem viri pauperis, et præparavit cibos homini qui venerat ad se.

5 Iratus autem indignatione David adversus hominem illum nimis, dixit ad Nathan: Vivit Dominus, quoniam filius mortis est vir qui fecit hoc.

6 Ovem reddet in quadruplum, eo quod fecerit verbum istud, et non pepercerit.

7 Dixit autem Nathan ad David: Tu es ille vir. Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Ego unxi te in regem super Israël, et ego erui te de manu Saul,

8 et dedi tibi domum domini tui, et uxores domini tui in sinu tuo, dedique tibi domum Israël et Juda: et si parva sunt ista, adjiciam tibi multo majora.

9 Quare ergo contempsisti verbum Domini, ut faceres malum in conspectu meo? Uriam Hethæum percussisti gladio, et uxorem illius accepisti in uxorem tibi, et interfecisti eum gladio filiorum Ammon.

10 Quam ob rem non recedet gladius de domo tua usque in sempiternum, eo quod despexeris me, et tuleris uxorem Uriæ Hethæi ut esset uxor tua.

11 Itaque hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce ego suscitabo super te malum de domo tua, et tollam uxores tuas in oculis tuis, et dabo proximo tuo: et dormiet cum uxoribus tuis in oculis solis hujus.

12 Tu enim fecisti abscondite: ego autem faciam verbum istud in conspectu omnis Israël, et in conspectu solis.

13 Et dixit David ad Nathan: Peccavi Domino. Dixitque Nathan ad David: Dominus quoque transtulit peccatum tuum: non morieris.

14 Verumtamen quoniam blasphemare fecisti inimicos Domini, propter verbum hoc, filius qui natus est tibi, morte morietur.

15 Et reversus est Nathan in domum suam. Percussit quoque Dominus parvulum quem pepererat uxor Uriæ David, et desperatus est.

16 Deprecatusque est David Dominum pro parvulo: et jejunavit David jejunio, et ingressus seorsum, jacuit super terram.

17 Venerunt autem seniores domus ejus, cogentes eum ut surgeret de terra: qui noluit, nec comedit cum eis cibum.

18 Accidit autem die septima ut moreretur infans: timueruntque servi David nuntiare ei quod mortuus esset parvulus: dixerunt enim: Ecce cum parvulus adhuc viveret, loquebamur ad eum, et non audiebat vocem nostram: quanto magis si dixerimus: Mortuus est puer, se affliget?

19 Cum ergo David vidisset servos suos mussitantes, intellexit quod mortuus esset infantulus: dixitque ad servos suos: Num mortuus est puer? Qui responderunt ei: Mortuus est.

20 Surrexit ergo David de terra, et lotus unctusque est: cumque mutasset vestem, ingressus est domum Domini: et adoravit, et venit in domum suam, petivitque ut ponerent ei panem, et comedit.

21 Dixerunt autem ei servi sui: Quis est sermo quem fecisti? propter infantem, cum adhuc viveret, jejunasti et flebas: mortuo autem puero, surrexisti, et comedisti panem.

22 Qui ait: Propter infantem, dum adhuc viveret, jejunavi et flevi: dicebam enim: Quis scit si forte donet eum mihi Dominus, et vivat infans?

23 Nunc autem quia mortuus est, quare jejunem? numquid potero revocare eum amplius? ego vadam magis ad eum: ille vero non revertetur ad me.

24 Et consolatus est David Bethsabee uxorem suam, ingressusque ad eam dormivit cum ea: quæ genuit filium, et vocavit nomen ejus Salomon: et Dominus dilexit eum.

25 Misitque in manu Nathan prophetæ, et vocavit nomen ejus, Amabilis Domino, eo quod diligeret eum Dominus.

26 Igitur pugnabat Joab contra Rabbath filiorum Ammon, et expugnabat urbem regiam.

27 Misitque Joab nuntios ad David, dicens: Dimicavi adversum Rabbath, et capienda est Urbs aquarum.

28 Nunc igitur congrega reliquam partem populi, et obside civitatem, et cape eam: ne cum a me vastata fuerit urbs, nomini meo ascribatur victoria.

29 Congregavit itaque David omnem populum, et profectus est adversum Rabbath: cumque dimicasset, cepit eam.

30 Et tulit diadema regis eorum de capite ejus, pondo auri talentum, habens gemmas pretiosissimas: et impositum est super caput David. Sed et prædam civitatis asportavit multam valde:

31 populum quoque ejus adducens serravit, et circumegit super eos ferrata carpenta: divisitque cultris, et traduxit in typo laterum: sic fecit universis civitatibus filiorum Ammon. Et reversus est David et omnis exercitus in Jerusalem.
