2 Samuel 12:18-20

The Voice

¹⁸ After seven days of this, the child died, and David’s servants were afraid to bring him the news.

¹⁹ When David saw his servants whispering among themselves, he immediately realized the boy was dead.

²⁰ Then David stood up, washed, anointed himself with sweet-smelling oils, and changed his clothes. He went into the house of the Eternal and worshiped. Then he returned to his house and asked for food; and when it was brought to him, he ate.
