Best Answer

King David (a married man) had sex with, and impregnated, Bathsheba, a married woman. When Uriah, Bathsheba's husband, did not follow David's orders (which would have covered up who impregnated Bathsheba), David had Uriah killed in battle. The baby, conceived by David and Bathsheba, died after it was born. David was forgiven, but, his sons and daughters suffered for having a wicked father and king. David was not allowed to build a Holy temple to God in Jerusalem. His son, Solomon, was allowed that privilege.

If you read 2 Samuel 12:9-19, you will come away with your own answer. David paid a bitter price but was fully repentant - deeply sorrowful - and God forgave him as He read his heart. More importantly, David committed pre-meditated murder of Uriah, and then Adultery - breaking at least 2 of God's Commandments.
