2 Samuel 12:2


2 Samuel 12:1 2 Samuel 12:2 (KJV) 2 Samuel 12:3
And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.
The rich [man] had exceeding many flocks and herds:
But the poor [man] had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.
