Portal:Bible/Featured chapter/2 Samuel 12
Nathan tells David a parable, asking him for an analysis. When Nathan reveals that the parable describes his actions, David realises that by his analysis he has condemned himself. Bathsheba's child dies as punishment. She has another son that she names Solomon. Joab captures Rabbah, and the crown of the king is given to David.
