2 Samuel 12:9
Compare all
7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I aanointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.  
8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!
9 aWhy have you bdespised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? cYou have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon.  
10 Now therefore, athe sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.’  
11 Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will raise up adversity against you from your own house; and I will atake your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.  
12 For you did it secretly, abut I will do this thing before all Israel, before the sun.’ ”

II Samuel 12:9-10

And God heard the cries of David's victims. Remember Abel's blood cried out from the ground. Well, I think Uriah's blood cried out from the ground, as it were. And He avenged—God did—their deaths, his death upon David and his house. We could go back and read that in II Samuel 12:9-10 where God said, "Your family's going to be a mess from now on. You're going to have war within your own family." And it was because of what he had done in this particular situation. God gave him conflict within his own family. But he admits here back in Psalm 51:14, that he had done it all. He had become guilty of blood. And that God was just.
