2 Samuel 12 16-2 Samuel 12 20
David pleaded with God for the boy. He fasted, went home, and spent the night lying on the ground.The elders of his house stood beside him to get him up from the ground, but he was unwilling and would not eat anything with them.On the seventh day the baby died. But David’s servants were afraid to tell him the baby was dead. They said,“ Look, while the baby was alive, we spoke to him, and he wouldn’t listen to us. So how can we tell him the baby is dead? He may do something desperate.”When David saw that his servants were whispering to each other, he guessed that the baby was dead. So he asked his servants,“ Is the baby dead?”“ He is dead,” they replied.Then David got up from the ground. He washed, anointed himself, changed his clothes, went to the LORD’s house, and worshiped. Then he went home and requested something to eat. So they served him food, and he ate.
