SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:15
¶ Y Natán se volvió a su casa. Y el SEÑOR hirió al niño que la mujer de Urías había dado a luz a David, y enfermó gravemente.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. And Nathan departed unto his house , etc.] His own house, which probably was in the city of Jerusalem, having delivered his message, and brought David to a sense of his sin, and declared to him from the Lord the forgiveness of it; yet for the honour of religion, and the stopping of the mouths of blasphemers, the death of the child is threatened and foretold, and then Nathan took his leave of him, having nothing more from the Lord to say to him: and the Lord struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David ; for so she was, and not David’s wife, when this child was begotten of her; and, as a mark of God’s displeasure at the sin of adultery, the child was struck with a sore disease by the immediate hand of God: and it was very sick ; even unto death, as the event showed.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-25 - David now penned the 51st Psalm, in which, though he had been assure that his sin was pardoned, he prays earnestly for pardon, and greatl laments his sin. He was willing to bear the shame of it, to have it ever before him, to be continually upbraided with it. God gives u leave to be earnest with him in prayer for particular blessings, from trust in his power and general mercy, though we have no particula promise to build upon. David patiently submitted to the will of God in the death of one child, and God made up the loss to his advantage, in the birth of another. The way to have creature comforts continued of restored, or the loss made up some other way, is cheerfully to resig them to God. God, by his grace, particularly owned and favoured tha son, and ordered him to be called Jedidiah, Beloved of the Lord. Ou prayers for our children are graciously and as fully answered when some of them die in their infancy, for they are well taken care of, and when others live, "beloved of the Lord."
