 3:26 Then spake 559 z8799 the woman 802 whose x834 the living 2416 child 1121 [was] unto x413 the king, 4428 for x3588 her bowels 7356 yearned 3648 z8738 upon x5921 her son, 1121 and she said, 559 z8799 O 994 my lord, 113 give 5414 z8798 her x853 the living 2416 child, 3205 z8803 and in no x408 wise y4191 z8687 slay 4191 z8686 it.
