» View this passage in NIV (Bible Gateway)

Counsel

It is interesting to note that Nathan had made sure that David’s promise would be heard by two witnesses, Bathsheba and himself. He had prearranged that after Bathsheba had presented her case he would come into the room and also confirm that the king had indeed made such a pledge.

Application

When I know that something is right and that it is within my power to do something about it, I need to take action. It is not always easy, but something I must do.
