3Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha were secretaries; 1Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was the recorder; 4and 2Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the army; and Zadok and 3Abiathar were priests; 5and Azariah the son of Nathan was over 4the deputies; and Zabud the son of Nathan, a priest, was the king’s friend; 6and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the men subject to forced labor.
7Solomon had twelve deputies over all Israel, who 5provided for the king and his household; each man had to 6provide for a month in the year. 8These are their names: Ben-hur, in the 7hill country of Ephraim; 9Ben-deker in Makaz and 8Shaalbim and 9Beth-shemesh and Elonbeth-hanan; 10Ben-hesed, in Arubboth (10Socoh was his and all the land of 11Hepher); 11Ben-abinadab, in all 12the 13height of Dor (Taphath the daughter of Solomon was his wife); 12Baana the son of Ahilud, in 14Taanach and Megiddo, and all 15Beth-shean which is beside 16Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth-shean to 17Abel-meholah as far as the other side of 18Jokmeam;
