1 Chronicles 27:23-31
23But David did not 1count those twenty years of age and under, 2because the Lord had said He would multiply Israel 3as the stars of heaven. 24Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to count them, but did not finish; and because of 4this, wrath came upon Israel, and the number was not included in the account of the chronicles of King David.
25Now Azmaveth the son of Adiel had charge of the king’s storehouses. And Jonathan the son of Uzziah had charge of the storehouses in the country, in the cities, in the villages and in the towers. 26Ezri the son of Chelub had charge of the 5agricultural workers who tilled the soil. 27Shimei the Ramathite had charge of the vineyards; and Zabdi the Shiphmite had charge of the 6produce of the vineyards stored in the wine cellars. 28Baal-hanan the Gederite had charge of the olive and 7sycamore trees in the 8Shephelah; and Joash had charge of the stores of oil. 29Shitrai the Sharonite had charge of the cattle which were grazing in 9Sharon; and Shaphat the son of Adlai had charge of the cattle in the valleys. 30Obil the Ishmaelite had charge of the camels; and Jehdeiah the Meronothite had charge of the donkeys. 31Jaziz the 10Hagrite had charge of the flocks. All these were 11overseers of the property which belonged to King David.
