Based on 2 Samuel 12. In this story, in the aftermath of David’s affair with Bath-Sheba and his having her husband murdered Nathan the prophet confronts David. But he does so indirectly. Nathan tells David about two men, one rich and one poor. In this story, the rich man callously exploits the poor man. David is outraged at the rich man and insists that the man pay fourfold for what he has done. Nathan lets David know that he is the man in the story. David, too, will pay fourfold. Though David’s sins are forgiven, the consequences remain. Eventually, David loses three sons and has to deal with his daughter’s Being raped. Even forgiven sins often have consequences.
