Verse 2 is found in chapter 12 of 2 Samuel. Nathan confronts David through a parable about a rich man who takes a poor man’s only sheep. David becomes indignant at the injustice and pronounces judgment on the guilty man without realizing that the story describes his own actions. Nathan then declares that David is that man. The prophetic strategy causes the king to pronounce his own verdict before hearing the direct accusation.
