2  And these were the princes whom he had: Azariah the son of Zadok, the priest;

3  Elihoreph and Ahijah, 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 priests;

5  And Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers; and Zabud the son of Nathan was chief minister, `and' the king's friend;

6  And Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the men subject to taskwork.

7  And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided victuals for the king and his household: each man had to make provision for a month in the year.

8  And these are their names: Ben-hur, in the hill-country of Ephraim;

9  Ben-deker, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan;

10  Ben-hesed, in Arubboth (to him `pertained' Socoh, and all the land of Hepher);
