1 Kings 4:7-19

7And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household: each man his month in a year made provision. 8And these are their names: The son of Hur, in mount Ephraim:1 9The son of Dekar, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Bethshemesh, and Elonbethhanan:2 10The son of Hesed, in Aruboth; to him pertained Sochoh, and all the land of Hepher:3 11The son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; who had Taphath the daughter of Solomon for a wife:4 12Baana the son of Ahilud; to him pertained Taanach and Megiddo, and all Bethshean, which is by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Bethshean to Abelmeholah, even to the place that is beyond Jokneam: 13The son of Geber, in Ramothgilead; to him pertained the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; to him also pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, sixty great cities with walls and brasen bars:5 14Ahinadab the son of Iddo had Mahanaim:6 15Ahimaaz was in Naphtali; he also took Basmath the daughter of Solomon for a wife: 16Baanah the son of Hushai was in Asher and in Aloth: 17Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar: 18Shimei the son of Elah, in Benjamin: 19Geber the son of Uri was in the country of Gilead, in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites, and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only officer who was in the land.
