“But the poor H7326 man had nothing H369 at all H3605 except H3588 H518 one H259 little H6996 ewe H3535 lamb H3535
Which H834 he bought H7069 and nurtured H2421;
And it grew H1431 up H1431 together H3162 with him and his children H1121.
It would eat H398 [fn]scraps H6595 from him and drink H8354 from his cup H3563 and lie H7901 [fn]in his lap H2436,
And was like a daughter H1323 to him.
“Now a visitor H1982 came H935 to the wealthy H6223 man H376,
And he could H2550 not bring H2550 himself H2550 to take H3947 any animal from his own flock H6629 or his own herd H1241,
To prepare H6213 for the traveler H732 who had come H935 to him;
So he took H3947 the poor H7326 man’s H376 ewe H3535 lamb H3535 and prepared H6213 it for the man H376 who had come H935 to him.”
Nathan H5416 then said H559 to David H1732, “You yourself H859 are the man H376! This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478 says H559: ‘It is I who anointed H4886 you as king H4428 over H5921 Israel H3478, and it is I who rescued H5337 you from the hand H3027 of Saul H7586.
