22 And he will say, The child yet living, and I fasted and wept; for I said, Who will know Jehovah will compassionate me, and the child live? 23 And now he died, wherefore thus do I fast? shall I be able to yet turn him back? I go to him, and he will not turn back to me. 24 And David will comfort Bath-Sheba his wife, and will go in to her and lie with her, and she will bear a son, and he will call his name Solomon: and Jehovah loved him. 25 And he will send by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he will call his name Jedidiah, for sake of Jehovah. 26 And Joab will fight against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and he will take the city of the kingdom. 27 And Joab will send messengers to David, and say, I fought against Rabbah, also I took the city of waters. 28 And now gather together the rest of the people and encamp against the city, and take it, lest I shall take the city, and my name was called upon it. 29 And David will gather all the people together and go to Rabbah, and war against it and take it. 30 And he will take the crown of their king from his head; and its weight a talent of gold and a precious stone; and it will be upon David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city exceeding much. 31 And the people which were in it he brought forth, and he will put at the saw and at the threshing-sledge of iron, and at axes of iron, and caused them to pass over through the brick-kiln: and thus he will do to all the cities of the sons of Ammon. And David will turn back, and all the people, to Jerusalem. 2 Samuel 12:22-31, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
