¹⁵ And Nathan departed vnto his house: And the Lorde strake the childe that Urias wyfe bare vnto Dauid, and it sickened sore. ¹⁶ Dauid therefore besought God for the childe, and fasted, and went in, & laye all night vpon the earth. ¹⁷ And the elders of his house arose and went to him, to take him vp from the earth: But he would not, neither did he eate meate with them. ¹⁸ And the seuenth day the childe dyed, and the seruauntes of Dauid feared to tell him that the childe was dead: For they said, beholde, while the childe was yet alyue we spake vnto hym, and he would not hearke vnto our voyce: how will he then vexe him selfe, if we tell him that the childe is dead? ¹⁹ But Dauid seing his seruautes whispering, perceaued that the childe was dead: & Dauid said vnto his seruauntes, Is the childe dead?
