1 Kings 5:2-9

2Solomon’s provision for one day was 30 measures of fine flour, 60 measures of meal,

310 fat oxen, 20 pasture-fed oxen, 100 sheep, beside deer, gazelles, roebucks and fatted geese.

4For he had dominion over the entire region west of the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings west of the River; and he had shalom on all sides around him.

5So Judah and Israel lived securely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.

6Solomon had 40,000 stalls of horses for his chariots, and 12,000 horsemen.

7So those officers provided food for King Solomon and all who came to King Solomon’s table, each in his month. They let nothing be lacking.

8They also brought barley and straw for the horses and swift steeds to the place where it should be, each according to his charge.

9God gave Solomon wisdom and discernment in great measure, and a breadth of understanding as vast as the sand on the seashore.
