2 Samuel 12:11-12
bring <06965> [I will raise.]
take <03947> [I will take.]
That is, in the course of my providence I will permit this to be done. Such phrases in Scripture do not mean that God either does or can do evil himself; but only that he permits such evil to be done as he foresaw would be done, and which, had he pleased, he might have prevented.
secret <05643> [secretly.]
