[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 levy.
[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: The son of Hur, in the hill-country of Ephraim;
[9]The son of Deker, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan;

[11]The son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; he had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife;
[12]Baana the son of Ahilud, in Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-shean which is beside Zarethan, beneath Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah, as far as beyond Jokmeam;
[13]The son of Geber, in Ramoth-gilead; to him pertained the villages of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; even to him pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brazen bars;
[14]Ahinadab the son of Iddo, in Mahanaim;
[15]Ahimaaz, in Naphtali; he also took Basemath the daughter of Solomon to wife;
