Chapter 4
So
king
Solomon
was
king
over
all
Israel.
2
And
these
were
the
princes
which
he
had;
Azariah
the
son
of
Zadok
the
priest,
3
Elihoreph
and
Ahiah,
the
sons
of
Shisha,
scribes;
Jehoshaphat
the
son
of
Ahilud,
the
recorder.
4
And
Benaiah
the
son
of
Jehoiada
was
over
the
host:
and
Zadok
and
Abiathar
were
the
priests:
5
And
Azariah
the
son
of
Nathan
was
over
the
officers:
and
Zabud
the
son
of
Nathan
was
principal
officer,
and
the
king’s
friend:
6
And
Ahishar
was
over
the
household:
and
Adoniram
the
son
of
Abda
was
over
the
tribute.
7
And
Solomon
had
twelve
officers
over
all
Israel,
which
provided
victuals
for
the
king
and
his
household:
each
man
his
month
in
a
year
made
provision.
8
And
these
are
their
names:
The
son
of
Hur,
in
mount
Ephraim:
9
The
son
of
Dekar,
in
Makaz,
and
in
Shaalbim,
and
Beth-shemesh,
and
Elon-beth-hanan:
10
The
son
of
Hesed,
in
Aruboth;
to
him
pertained
Sochoh,
and
all
the
land
of
Hepher:
11
The
son
of
Abinadab,
in
all
the
region
of
Dor;
which
had
Taphath
the
daughter
of
Solomon
to
wife:
12
Baana
the
son
of
Ahilud;
to
him
pertained
Taanach
and
Megiddo,
and
all
Beth-shean,
which
is
by
Zartanah
beneath
Jezreel,
from
Beth-shean
to
Abel-meholah,
even
unto
the
place
that
is
beyond
Jokneam:
13
The
son
of
Geber,
in
Ramoth-gilead;
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,
threescore
great
cities
with
walls
and
brasen
bars:
14
Ahinadab
the
son
of
Iddo
had
Mahanaim:
15
Ahimaaz
was
in
Naphtali;
he
also
took
Basmath
the
daughter
of
Solomon
to
wife:
16
Baanah
the
son
of
Hushai
was
in
Asher
and
in
Aloth:
17
Jehoshaphat
the
son
of
Paruah,
in
Issachar:
18
Shimei
the
son
of
Elah,
in
Benjamin:
19
Geber
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
which
was
in
the
land.
20
Judah
and
Israel
were
many,
as
the
sand
which
is
by
the
sea
in
multitude,
eating
and
drinking,
and
making
merry.
21
And
Solomon
reigned
over
all
kingdoms
from
the
river
unto
the
land
of
the
Philistines,
and
unto
the
border
of
Egypt:
they
brought
presents,
and
served
Solomon
all
the
days
of
his
life.
22
And
Solomon’s
provision
for
one
day
was
thirty
measures
of
fine
flour,
and
threescore
measures
of
meal,
23
Ten
fat
oxen,
and
twenty
oxen
out
of
the
pastures,
and
an
hundred
sheep,
beside
harts,
and
roebucks,
and
fallowdeer,
and
fatted
fowl.
24
For
he
had
dominion
over
all
the
region
on
this
side
the
river,
from
Tiphsah
even
to
Azzah,
over
all
the
kings
on
this
side
the
river:
and
he
had
peace
on
all
sides
round
about
him.
25
And
Judah
and
Israel
dwelt
safely,
every
man
under
his
vine
and
under
his
fig
tree,
from
Dan
even
to
Beer-sheba,
all
the
days
of
Solomon.
26
And
Solomon
had
forty
thousand
stalls
of
horses
for
his
chariots,
and
twelve
thousand
horsemen.
27
And
those
officers
provided
victual
for
king
Solomon,
and
for
all
that
came
unto
king
Solomon’s
table,
every
man
in
his
month:
they
lacked
nothing.
28
Barley
also
and
straw
for
the
horses
and
dromedaries
brought
they
unto
the
place
where
the
officers
were,
every
man
according
to
his
charge.
29
And
God
gave
Solomon
wisdom
and
understanding
exceeding
much,
and
largeness
of
heart,
even
as
the
sand
that
is
on
the
sea
shore.
30
And
Solomon’s
wisdom
excelled
the
wisdom
of
all
the
children
of
the
east
country,
and
all
the
wisdom
of
Egypt.
31
For
he
was
wiser
than
all
men;
than
Ethan
the
Ezrahite,
and
Heman,
and
Chalcol,
and
Darda,
the
sons
of
Mahol:
and
his
fame
was
in
all
nations
round
about.
32
And
he
spake
three
thousand
proverbs:
and
his
songs
were
a
thousand
and
five.
33
And
he
spake
of
trees,
from
the
cedar
tree
that
is
in
Lebanon
even
unto
the
hyssop
that
springeth
out
of
the
wall:
he
spake
also
of
beasts,
and
of
fowl,
and
of
creeping
things,
and
of
fishes.
34
And
there
came
of
all
people
to
hear
the
wisdom
of
Solomon,
from
all
kings
of
the
earth,
which
had
heard
of
his
wisdom.
