One woman said, “Please, my lord, this woman and I live in the same house, and I gave birth while she was in the house.
1KI.3.17
“No,” said the other woman, “the living one is my son and the dead one is your son.” But the first woman insisted, “No, the dead one is yours and the living one is mine.” So they argued before the king.
1KI.3.22
and the king declared, “Cut the living child in two and give half to one and half to the other.”
1KI.3.25
Then the woman whose son was alive spoke to the king because she yearned with compassion for her son. “Please, my lord,” she said, “give her the living baby. Do not kill him!” But the other woman said, “He will be neither mine nor yours. Cut him in two!”
1KI.3.26
Then the king gave his ruling: “Give the living baby to the first woman. By no means should you kill him; she is his mother.”
