2 SAMUEL 12:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.”
'Nevertheless, because by this deed you have utterly scorned the LORD, the child that is born to you shall die' - The consequence is specific: the child born from adultery shall die. David's sin brings death to the innocent. The judgment reflects covenant seriousness: sin has consequences beyond the perpetrator.
