1 Kings 3:26-28

English Standard Version Anglicised

²⁶ Then the woman whose son was alive said to the king, because ^(A)her heart yearned for her son, “Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and by no means put him to death.” But the other said, “He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him.” ²⁷ Then the king answered and said, “Give the living child to the first woman, and by no means put him to death; she is his mother.” ²⁸ And all Israel heard of the judgement that the king had rendered, and they stood in awe of the king, because they perceived that ^(B)the wisdom of God was in him to do justice.
