Bible Verses About King: Acts as judge

Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, "Move away, you and your household, and stay wherever you can; because ADONAI has called for a famine; and it will be on the land for seven years."

The woman acted at once and did as the man of God had said - she went with her household and stayed in the land of the P'lishtim for seven years.

At the end of seven years the woman returned from the land of the P'lishtim and sought an audience with the king to claim her house and land.

Geichazi said, "My lord, king, this is the woman; and this is her son, the one Elisha restored to life."

On being asked by the king, the woman verified it. At this, the king appointed a special officer and charged him, "Restore everything that belongs to her, including the income her fields have produced from the day she left them until now."

By Shlomo: God, give the king your fairness in judgment, endow this son of kings with your righteousness,
