1 Kings 4:3-12

3Elihoreph and Ahiah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, chronicler;

4and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the host; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

5and Azariah the son of Nathan was over the superintendents; and Zabud the son of Nathan was principal officer, the king's friend;

6and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the levy-service.

7And Solomon had twelve superintendents over all Israel; and they provided food for the king and his household: each man his month in the year had to make provision.

8And these are their names: Ben-Hur, in mount Ephraim.

9Ben-Deker in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-Beth-hanan.

10Ben-Hesed, in Arubboth; he had Sochoh, and all the land of Hepher.

11Ben-Abinadab had all the upland of Dor; Taphath the daughter of Solomon was his wife.

12Baana the son of Ahilud had Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-shean, which is by Zaretan beneath Jizreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-Meholah, as far as beyond Jokneam.
