| 1 | And king Solomon was king over all Israel. |
| 2 | And these were the princes whom he had: Azariah the son of Zadok, the priest; |
| 3 | Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder; |
| 4 | and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the host; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests; |
| 5 | and Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers; and Zabud the son of Nathan was chief minister and the king’s friend; |
| 6 | and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the levy. |
| 7 | And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided victuals for the king and his household: each man had to make provision for a month in the year. |
| 8 | And these are their names: The son of Hur, in the hill-country of Ephraim; |
| 9 | the son of Deker, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan; |
| 10 | the son of Hesed, in Arubboth; to him pertained Socoh, and all the land of Hepher; |
| 11 | the son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; he had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife; |
| 12 | 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; |
| 13 | the son of Geber, in Ramoth-gilead; to him pertained the villages of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; even to him pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brazen bars; |
| 14 | Ahinadab the son of Iddo, in Mahanaim; |
| 15 | Ahimaaz, in Naphtali; he also took Basemath the daughter of Solomon to wife; |
| 16 | Baana the son of Hushai, in Asher and Bealoth; |
| 17 | Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar; |
| 18 | Shimei the son of Ela, in Benjamin; |
| 19 | Geber the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and one officer that was [over all the officers] in the land. |
| 20 | Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry. |
