15 Then Nathan went home.
David’s Infant Son Dies
After this, the Lord afflicted the child that Uriah’s wife had born to David, and the child[a] became very ill. 16 David begged God on behalf of the youngster. He[b] fasted, went inside, and spent the night lying on the ground. 17 His closest advisors at the palace[c] got up, remained with him, and tried to help him get up from the ground, but he would not do so. He also wouldn’t eat with them.
