    1And the LORD sent Nathan to David. He came to him and said, There were two men in one city; one was rich, and the other poor.

    2The rich man had exceedingly many flocks and herds.

    3But the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nurtured: it grew up with him and with his children; it ate of his own food, drank from his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and it was like a daughter to him.

    4And a traveler came to the rich man, and he refused to take from his own flock and herd to prepare a meal for the wanderer who had come to him; instead, he took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.

    5David's anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD lives, the man who has done this shall surely die.

    7Nathan said to David, You are the man. Thus says the LORD God of Israel, I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.

    9Why have you despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

    10Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house; because you have despised Me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.
