1 Kings 3:17–21 · Berean Standard Bible
17 One woman said, “Please, my lord, this woman and I live in the same house, and I gave birth while she was in the house.
18 On the third day after I gave birth, this woman also had a baby. We were alone, with no one in the house but the two of us.
19 During the night this woman’s son died because she rolled over on him.
20 So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I was asleep. She laid him in her bosom and put her dead son at my bosom.
21 The next morning, when I got up to nurse my son, I discovered he was dead. But when I examined him, I realized that he was not the son I had borne.”
