Nathan confronts David with a parable about a rich man who steals a poor man’s beloved lamb. David condemns the offender, and Nathan answers, ‘Thou art the man.’ David confesses his sin; Nathan tells him the LORD has put away his sin and that he will not die, yet severe temporal consequences will strike his house and the child born from the adultery dies. Later Bathsheba bears Solomon, the LORD loves him, and Rabbah is finally taken.
