Was it good that Solomon helped the prostitutes?

1 Rois 3:28 (NEG79)

28 Tout Israël apprit le jugement que le roi avait prononcé. Et l'on craignit le roi, car on vit que la sagesse de Dieu était en lui pour le diriger dans ses jugements.

The ugly truth is that both of these women were whores; they sold their bodies for sex. Yet Solomon showed mercy to one of these women by protecting her from injustice.1 In Psalm 72:12–13 that is beautifully described as the task of the king of God.
