2 Samuel 12:7–12

⁷Then Nathan said to David, “You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I ^danointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul. ⁸I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more! ^9eWhy have you ^fdespised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? ^gYou have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon. ¹⁰Now therefore, ^hthe 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.’ ¹¹Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will raise up adversity against you from your own house; and I will ⁱtake your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this sun. ¹²For you did it secretly, ^jbut I will do this thing before all Israel, before the sun.’ ”
