NASB
"Then the king said, "Give the first woman the living child, and by no means kill him. She is his mother.""
— 1 Kings 3:27, NASB
“Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.”
“Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof. ”
“Then the king answered, "Give her the living child, and in no way kill it. She is its mother."”
“The king responded,“Give the first woman the living child; don’t kill him. She is the mother.””
“The king answered, and said: Give the living child to this woman, and let it not be killed; for she is the mother thereof.”
“Then the king made answer and said, Give her the child, and do not put it to death; she is the mother of it.”
“Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.”
The king said, "Get me a sword." So they brought a sword before the king.
The king said, "Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one and half to the other."
Then the woman whose child was the living one spoke to the king, for she was deeply stirred over her son and said, "Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and by no means kill him." But the other said, "He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him!"
Then the king said, "Give the first woman the living child, and by no means kill him. She is his mother."
When all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had handed down, they feared the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.
