1 Kings 3:25-27

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁵ And the king said, Divide the living child in two and give half to the one and half to the other.

²⁶ Then the woman, of whom the living child was, spoke unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.

²⁷ Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it, for she is its mother.
