the son of Hesed, in Arubot; he also had charge of Sokhoh and all the territory of Hefer;

the son of Avinadav, in all the area of Dor; he had Tafat the daughter of Shlomo as his wife;

Ba'ana the son of Achilud, in Ta'anakh, Megiddo, and all Beit-Sh'an by Tzartan below Yizre'el, from Beit-Sh'an to Avel-M'cholah, as far as beyond Yokme'am;

the son of Gever, in Ramot-Gil'ad; he was in charge of the villages of Ya'ir the son of M'nasheh in Gil'ad and in charge of the region of Argov in Bashan, sixty large cities with walls and bronze bars;

Achinadav the son of 'Iddo, in Machanayim;

Achima'atz, in Naftali; he also took Basmat the daughter of Shlomo as his wife;

Ba'ana the son of Hushai, in Asher and in Alot;

Y'hoshafat the son of Paruach, in Yissakhar;

Shim'i the son of Ela, in Binyamin; and

Gever the son of Uri, in the land of Gil'ad, the country of Sichon king of the Emori and 'Og king of Bashan. Over all these, there was one administrator in the land.

Those officers [named above] supplied food and other materials for King Shlomo and for everyone for whom Shlomo provided. Each was responsible for his month's supplies; they saw to it that nothing was lacking.
