4 Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the host; and Zadok and Abiathar were the priests;
5 Azariah, the son of Nathan, was over the officers; and Zabud, the son of Nathan, was the priest and special companion of the king;
6 and Ahishar was over the household; and Adoniram, the son of Abda, was over the tribute.
7 And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who maintained the king and his household. Each one of them made provision for one month in the year.
