1 Kings 4:7-23

7Solomon had twelve deputies for all Israel. They provided food for the king and his household; each one made provision for one month out of the year.

8These were their names: Ben-hur, in the hill country of Ephraim;

9Ben-deker, in Makaz, Shaalbim, Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan;

10Ben-hesed, in Arubboth (he had Socoh and the whole land of Hepher);

11Ben-abinadab, in all Naphath-dor (Taphath daughter of Solomon was his wife);

12Baana son of Ahilud, in Taanach, Megiddo, and all Beth-shean which is beside Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah, as far as the other side of Jokmeam;

13Ben-geber, in Ramoth-gilead (he had the villages of Jair son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead, and he had the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, sixty great cities with walls and bronze bars);

14Ahinadab son of Iddo, in Mahanaim;

15Ahimaaz, in Naphtali (he also had married a daughter of Solomon — Basemath);

16Baana son of Hushai, in Asher and Bealoth;

17Jehoshaphat son of Paruah, in Issachar;

18Shimei son of Ela, in Benjamin;

19Geber son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of King Sihon of the Amorites and of King Og of Bashan. There was one deputy in the land of Judah.

20Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand by the sea; they were eating, drinking, and rejoicing.

21Solomon ruled all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines and as far as the border of Egypt. They offered tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.

22Solomon’s provisions for one day were 180 bushels of fine flour and 360 bushels of meal,

23ten fattened cattle, twenty range cattle, and a hundred sheep and goats, besides deer, gazelles, roebucks, and pen-fed poultry,
