Who pronounced the penalties of David's sin?

Explanation:
Nathan the prophet is the one who pronounces the penalties for David’s sin. In 2 Samuel 12, after David’s sin with Bathsheba and Uriah, Nathan confronts him with a parable to expose the offense, then declares God’s verdict: the sword will never depart from David’s house, evil will rise from within his own family, and the child born to Bathsheba will die. This shows how a prophetic spokesperson delivers God’s consequences directly to the king. Samuel is associated with earlier judgments against Saul, Gad appears later offering other messages to David, and Ahithophel is a betraying counselor—not the one delivering these particular penalties.
