1 Kings 3:22-24

Living Bible

²² Then the other woman interrupted, “It certainly was her son, and the living child is mine.”

“No,” the first woman said, “the dead one is yours and the living one is mine.” And so they argued back and forth before the king.

²³ Then the king said, “Let’s get the facts straight: both of you claim the living child, and each says that the dead child belongs to the other. ²⁴ All right, bring me a sword.” So a sword was brought to the king.
