3. But the poor man had only one little she-lamb, which he had got and taken care of: from its birth it had been with him like one of his children; his meat was its food, and from his cup it took its drink, resting in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.

BBE summary for : 2 Samuel 12
Summary: In 2 Samuel chapter 12, the prophet Nathan confronts King David after his adultery with Bathsheba and the subsequent murder of her husband, Uriah. Nathan delivers a poignant parable about a rich man who took a poor man's only lamb, provoking David's anger and causing him to pronounce judgment on the rich man, unaware that he is pronouncing judgment on himself. Nathan then reveals that David is that man, and he outlines the consequences of David's actions, including the death of the child born from his union with Bathsheba. A key theme in this chapter is the nature of sin and its repercussions; David’s initial sins lead to a series of personal tragedies, illustrating that actions have serious consequences. The chapter also highlights God's justice and mercy, as David, upon realizing his sin, sincerely repents. Nathan informs David that God has forgiven him, yet the consequences of his sins will still unfold, emphasizing the theme of divine justice in juxtaposition with grace. Ultimately, this chapter serves as a cautionary tale about the severity of sin and the importance of repentance.
