1 Kings 4:13-31

¹³Ben-Geber, in Ramoth-Gilead, hath the small towns of Jair son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; he hath a portion of Argob that is in Bashan, sixty great cities with wall and brazen bar.

¹⁴Ahinadab son of Iddo hath Mahanaim.

¹⁵Ahimaaz is in Naphtali; he also hath taken Basemath daughter of Solomon for a wife.

¹⁶Baanah Ben-Hushai is in Asher, and in Aloth.

¹⁷Jehoshaphat Ben-Paruah is in Issachar.

¹⁸Shimei Ben-Elah is in Benjamin.

¹⁹Geber Ben-Uri is in the land of Gilead, the land of Sihon king of the Amorite, and of Og king of Bashan: and one officer who is in the land.

²⁰Judah and Israel are many, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing.

²¹And Solomon hath been ruling over all the kingdoms, from the River to the land of the Philistines and unto the border of Egypt: they are bringing nigh a present, and serving Solomon, all days of his life.

²²And the provision of Solomon for one day is thirty cors of flour, and sixty cors of meal;

²³ten fat oxen, and twenty feeding oxen, and a hundred sheep, apart from hart, and roe, and fallow-deer, and fatted beasts of the stalls,

²⁴for he is ruling over all beyond the river, from Tiphsah and unto Gaza, over all the kings beyond the river, and he hath peace from all his servants round about.

²⁵And Judah dwelleth — and Israel — in confidence, each under his vine, and under his fig-tree, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, all the days of Solomon.

²⁶And Solomon hath forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.

²⁷And these officers have sustained king Solomon and every one drawing near unto the table of king Solomon, each in his month; they let nothing be lacking.

²⁸And the barley and the straw, for horses and for dromedaries, they bring in unto the place where they are, each according to his ordinance.

²⁹And God giveth wisdom to Solomon, and understanding, very much, and breadth of heart, as the sand that is on the edge of the sea;

³⁰and the wisdom of Solomon is greater than the wisdom of any of the sons of the east, and than all the wisdom of Egypt;

³¹and he is wiser than all men, than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol, and his name is in all the nations round about.
