King James Version with Apocrypha
"And this woman’s child died in the night; because she overlaid it."
— 1 Kings 3:19, King James Version with Apocrypha
“And this woman’s child died in the night; because she overlaid it.”
“And this woman’s child died in the night, because she lay upon it. ”
“This woman's child died in the night, because she lay on it.”
“This woman’s child suffocated during the night when she rolled on top of him.”
“And this woman's child died in the night: for in her sleep she overlaid him.”
“In the night, this woman, sleeping on her child, was the cause of its death.”
Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.
And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.
And this woman’s child died in the night; because she overlaid it.
And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.
And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is thy son. And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son. Thus they spake before the king.
