1 Kings 3:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ “During the night this woman’s baby died. It happened because she was lying on top of him. ²⁰ So she got up in the middle of the night. She took my son from my side while I was asleep. She put him by her breast. Then she put her dead son by my breast. ²¹ The next morning, I got up to nurse my son. But he was dead! I looked at him closely in the morning light. And I saw that it wasn’t my baby.”
