2 Samuel 12:22

He said , While the child was still alive , I fasted and wept , for I said , Who knows whether the Lord will be gracious to me, that the child may live ?

He answered, “While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept. I thought, ‘Who knows? The Lord may be gracious to me and let the child live.`

And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept : for I said, Who can tell whether God will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
