2 Samuel 11:2-5

2 It happened, late one afternoon, when David arose from his couch and was walking on ^athe roof of the king’s house, that he saw from the roof a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful. 3 And David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, “Is not this ^bBathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of ^cUriah the Hittite?” 4 So David sent messengers and took her, and she came to him, and he lay with her. ( ^dNow she had been purifying herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned to her house. 5 And the woman conceived, and she sent and told David, “I am pregnant.”

2 Samuel 12:10-11

10 Now therefore the 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 evil against you out of your own house. And I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.

Psalms 32:3-4

3 For when I kept silent, my ^ebones wasted away
through my ^fgroaning all day long.
4 For day and night your ^ghand was heavy upon me;
my strength was dried up ^{▼▼Hebrew my vitality was changed} as by the heat of summer. Selah

Psalms 38:1-8

Do Not Forsake Me, O Lord

A Psalm of David, ⁱfor the memorial offering.

1 O Lord, ^jrebuke me not in your anger,
nor discipline me in your wrath!
2 For your ^karrows have sunk into me,
and your hand ^lhas come down on me.
3 There is ^mno soundness in my flesh
because of your indignation;
there is no health in my ⁿbones
because of my sin.
4 For my ^oiniquities have gone over my head;
like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and fester
because of my foolishness,
6 I am ^putterly bowed down and ^qprostrate;
all the day I ^rgo about mourning.
7 For my sides are filled with burning,
and there is ^sno soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and crushed;
I ^tgroan because of the tumult of my heart.

Psalms 51:8-9

8 Let me hear joy and gladness;
^ulet the bones ^vthat you have broken rejoice.
9 ^wHide your face from my sins,
and ^xblot out all my iniquities.

Proverbs 1:31

31 therefore they shall eat ^ythe fruit of their way,
and have ^ztheir fill of their own devices.
