1 Kings 4:7-19
7Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household; each had to make provision for a month in 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 (his were Socoh and all the land of Hehper);
11Ben-Abinadab in all the height of Dor (Taphath, Solomon’s daughter was his wife);
12Baana son of Ahilud, in Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-shean which is beside Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah as far as beyond Jokmeam;
13Ben-Geber, in Ramot-Gilead (his were the villages of Jair son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead, and also his were the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, 60 great cities with walls and bronze bars);
14Ahinadab son of Iddo, in Mahanaim;
15Ahimaaz, in Naphtali (he also took Basemath, Solomon’s daughter, as wife);
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 Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and one who was the officer in the land.
