This said, No; but the dead is your son, and the living is my son. Thus they spoke before the king. 003:023 Then said the king, The one says, This is my son who lives, and your son is the dead: and the other says, No; but your son is the dead, and my son is the living. 003:024 The king said, Get me a sword. They brought a sword before the king. 003:025 The king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other. 003:026 Then spoke the woman whose the living child was to the king, for her heart yearned over her son, and she said, Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and in no way kill it. But the other said, It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it. 003:027 Then the king answered, Give her the living child, and in no way kill it: she is the mother of it. 003:028 All Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do justice. 004:001 King Solomon was king over all Israel. 004:002 These were the princes whom he had: Azariah the son of Zadok, the priest; 004:003 Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder; 004:004 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the army; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests; 004:005 and Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers; and Zabud the son of Nathan was chief minister, [and] the king's friend; 004:006 and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the men subject to forced labor. 004:007 Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household: each man had to make provision for a month in the year. 004:008 These are their names: Ben Hur, in the hill country of Ephraim; 004:009 Ben Deker, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth Shemesh, and Elon Beth Hanan; 004:010 Ben Hesed, in Arubboth (to him [pertained] Socoh, and all the land of Hepher); 004:011 Ben Abinadab, in all the height of Dor (he had Taphath the daughter of Solomon as wife); 004:012 Baana the son of Ahilud, in Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth Shean which is beside Zarethan, beneath Jezreel, from Beth Shean to Abel Meholah, as far as beyond Jokmeam; 004:013 Ben Geber, in Ramoth Gilead (to him [pertained] the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; [even] to him [pertained] the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, sixty great cities with walls and bronze bars);
