24And the kingH4428 saidH559, BringH935 me a swordH2719. And they broughtH935 a swordH2719 before the kingH4428.

25And the kingH4428 saidH559, Divide the living childH3206 in twoH8147, and giveH5414 halfH2677 to the oneH259, and halfH2677 to the other.

26Then spoke the womanH802 whose wasH1961 the living child to the kingH4428, for her bowels yearned over her sonH1121, and she saidH559, Ah, my lordH113! giveH5414 her the living child, and in no wise putH5414 it to deathH4191. But the other saidH559, Let it beH1961 neither mine nor thine; divide it.

27And the kingH4428 answered and saidH559, GiveH5414 this one the living childH3205, and in no wise putH5414 it to deathH4191: she is its motherH517.
