16. Baana the son of Hushai, in Asher and Bealoth;

17. Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar;

18. Shimei the son of Ela, in Benjamin;

19. Geber the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only deputy who was in the land.

20. Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand that is on the seashore in abundance; they were eating and drinking and rejoicing.

21. Now Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt; they brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.

22. Solomon's provision for one day was thirty kors of fine flour and sixty kors of meal,

23. ten fat oxen, twenty pasture-fed oxen, a hundred sheep besides deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened fowl.

24. For he had dominion over everything west of the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings west of the River; and he had peace on all sides around about him.

25. So Judah and Israel lived in safety, every man under his vine and his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.

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

27. Those deputies provided for King Solomon and all who came to King Solomon's table, each in his month; they left nothing lacking.
