The Clever King Solomon 聪明的国王所罗门
Long long ago, there was a king. Solomon was his name. He was very clever.
很久很久之前，有一位国王，他的名字叫所罗门，他非常聪明。
In his country, there were two women. They lived in the same house and each had a child.
在他的国家里，有两位妇女，她们住在同一间房子里。各有一个婴儿。
One night, one of the babies died. The dead baby’s mother took the other woman’s baby, and put it in her own bed.
一天夜里，其中一个婴儿死了。他的妈妈抱另一位妇女的小孩，把他放在自己的床上。
Next morning, they had a quarrel.
第二天早上，他们发生了争吵。
“No, this is my baby! The dead is yours!”
“不，这是我的孩子！那个死的是你的！”
Each one wanted the living baby. So they went to see King Solomon.
他们都想要这个活着的孩子，于是她们去见所罗门国王。
“Bring me a knife, cut the child into two and give each woman one half.” said the King.
“给我拿把刀来，把这个孩子切成两半，没人一半。”国王判决道。
“Oh. Your Majesty! Give her my baby. Please don’t kill my baby!”
“哦，陛下，把我的孩子给她吧。请不要杀了我的孩子！”一位母亲哭喊道。
Then King Solomon pointed to the woman in tears and said, “Give the baby to her. She is the mother.”
于是所罗门指着流泪的妇女说：“把孩子给她，她是真正的母亲。”
