I don't have much to say about today's reading. David has finally done something to upset God after being so careful about that. He kills someone and then takes this man's wife and God is displeased. I am not quite sure of the issue yet, but believe an explanation is to come.
Today's proverbs are more words of the wise.

I find it interesting that of all the things David has done and all his sinning, this is the thing that displeases the Lord. We have been shown his constant sin and that he is not perfect but that he follows the Lords instruction. It doesn't say anything about him seeking instruction where Bathsheba is concerned, but he has taken on may wives prior and killed others as well.
These are further words to the wise. Vs 29 stands out again stating Do not say, "I'll do to them as they have done to me; I'll pay them back for what they did." Do not seek revenge.
