2 Samuel 12:15-17
New International Version
15 After Nathan had gone home, the Lord struck(A) the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and he became ill. 16 David pleaded with God for the child. He fasted and spent the nights lying(B) in sackcloth[a] on the ground. 17 The elders of his household stood beside him to get him up from the ground, but he refused,(C) and he would not eat any food with them.(D)
