Thus they spake before the king. 23 Then said the King, The one saith, This is my sonne, that liueth, and thy sonne is the dead: and the other saith Nay: but thy sonne is the dead, and my sonne is the liuing. 24 And the King said, Bring mee a sword. And they brought a sword before the king: 25 And the king said, Diuide the liuing childe in two, and giue halfe to the one, and halfe to the other.
