These were the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was banished from the presence of Saul son of Kish( they were among the warriors who helped him in battle;they were armed with bows and were able to shoot arrows or to sling stones right-handed or left-handed; they were relatives of Saul from the tribe of Benjamin):Ahiezer their chief and Joash the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet the sons of Azmaveth; Berakah, Jehu the Anathothite,and Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty warrior among the Thirty, who was a leader of the Thirty; Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan, Jozabad the Gederathite,Eluzai, Jerimoth, Bealiah, Shemariah and Shephatiah the Haruphite;Elkanah, Ishiah, Azarel, Joezer and Jashobeam the Korahites;and Joelah and Zebadiah the sons of Jeroham from Gedor.Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the wilderness. They were brave warriors, ready for battle and able to handle the shield and spear. Their faces were the faces of lions, and they were as swift as gazelles in the mountains.Ezer was the chief, Obadiah the second in command, Eliab the third,Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,Jeremiah the tenth and Makbannai the eleventh.These Gadites were army commanders; the least was a match for a hundred, and the greatest for a thousand.It was they who crossed the Jordan in the first month when it was overflowing all its banks, and they put to flight everyone living in the valleys, to the east and to the west.Other Benjamites and some men from Judah also came to David in his stronghold.David went out to meet them and said to them,“ If you have come to me in peace to help me, I am ready for you to join me. But if you have come to betray me to my enemies when my hands are free from violence, may the God of our ancestors see it and judge you.”Then the Spirit came on Amasai, chief of the Thirty, and he said:“ We are yours, David! We are with you, son of Jesse! Success, success to you, and success to those who help you, for your God will help you.” So David received them and made them leaders of his raiding bands.Some of the tribe of Manasseh defected to David when he went with the Philistines to fight against Saul.( He and his men did not help the Philistines because, after consultation, their rulers sent him away. They said,“ It will cost us our heads if he deserts to his master Saul.”)When David went to Ziklag, these were the men of Manasseh who defected to him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu and Zillethai, leaders of units of a thousand in Manasseh.They helped David against raiding bands, for all of them were brave warriors, and they were commanders in his army.Day after day men came to help David, until he had a great army, like the army of God.These are the numbers of the men armed for battle who came to David at Hebron to turn Saul’s kingdom over to him, as the Lord had said:from Judah, carrying shield and spear— 6,800 armed for battle;from Simeon, warriors ready for battle— 7,100;from Levi— 4,600,including Jehoiada, leader of the family of Aaron, with 3,700 men,and Zadok, a brave young warrior, with 22 officers from his family;from Benjamin, Saul’s tribe— 3,000, most of whom had remained loyal to Saul’s house until then;from Ephraim, brave warriors, famous in their own clans— 20,800;from half the tribe of Manasseh, designated by name to come and make David king— 18,000;from Issachar, men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do— 200 chiefs, with all their relatives under their command;from Zebulun, experienced soldiers prepared for battle with every type of weapon, to help David with undivided loyalty— 50,000;from Naphtali— 1,000 officers, together with 37,000 men carrying shields and spears;from Dan, ready for battle— 28,600;from Asher, experienced soldiers prepared for battle— 40,000;and from east of the Jordan, from Reuben, Gad and the half- tribe of Manasseh, armed with every type of weapon— 120,000.All these were fighting men who volunteered to serve in the ranks. They came to Hebron fully determined to make David king over all Israel. All the rest of the Israelites were also of one mind to make David king.The men spent three days there with David, eating and drinking, for their families had supplied provisions for them.Also, their neighbors from as far away as Issachar, Zebulun and Naphtali came bringing food on donkeys, camels, mules and oxen. There were plentiful supplies of flour, fig cakes, raisin cakes, wine, olive oil, cattle and sheep, for there was joy in Israel. (niv)

So King Solomon ruled over all Israel.And these were his chief officials: Azariah son of Zadok— the priest;Elihoreph and Ahijah, sons of Shisha— secretaries; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud— recorder;Benaiah son of Jehoiada— commander in chief; Zadok and Abiathar— priests;Azariah son of Nathan— in charge of the district governors; Zabud son of Nathan— a priest and adviser to the king;Ahishar— palace administrator; Adoniram son of Abda— in charge of forced labor.Solomon had twelve district governors over all Israel, who supplied provisions for the king and the royal household. Each one had to provide supplies for one month in the year.These are their names: Ben-Hur— in the hill country of Ephraim;Ben-Deker— in Makaz, Shaalbim, Beth Shemesh and Elon Bethhanan;Ben-Hesed— in Arubboth( Sokoh and all the land of Hepher were his);Ben-Abinadab— in Naphoth Dor( he was married to Taphath daughter of Solomon);Baana son of Ahilud— in Taanach and Megiddo, and in all of Beth Shan next to Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth Shan to Abel Meholah across to Jokmeam;Ben-Geber— in Ramoth Gilead( the settlements of Jair son of Manasseh in Gilead were his, as well as the region of Argob in Bashan and its sixty large walled cities with bronze gate bars);Ahinadab son of Iddo— in Mahanaim;Ahimaaz— in Naphtali( he had married Basemath daughter of Solomon);Baana son of Hushai— in Asher and in Aloth;Jehoshaphat son of Paruah— in Issachar;Shimei son of Ela— in Benjamin;Geber son of Uri— in Gilead( the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and the country of Og king of Bashan). He was the only governor over the district.The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore; they ate, they drank and they were happy.And Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. These countries brought tribute and were Solomon’s subjects all his life.Solomon’s daily provisions were thirty cors of the finest flour and sixty cors of meal,ten head of stall-fed cattle, twenty of pasture-fed cattle and a hundred sheep and goats, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks and choice fowl.For he ruled over all the kingdoms west of the Euphrates River, from Tiphsah to Gaza, and had peace on all sides.During Solomon’s lifetime Judah and Israel, from Dan to Beersheba, lived in safety, everyone under their own vine and under their own fig tree.Solomon had four thousand stalls for chariot horses, and twelve thousand horses.The district governors, each in his month, supplied provisions for King Solomon and all who came to the king’s table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking.They also brought to the proper place their quotas of barley and straw for the chariot horses and the other horses.God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore.Solomon’s wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East, and greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.He was wiser than anyone else, including Ethan the Ezrahite— wiser than Heman, Kalkol and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread to all the surrounding nations.He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs numbered a thousand and five.He spoke about plant life, from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of walls. He also spoke about animals and birds, reptiles and fish.From all nations people came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the world, who had heard of his wisdom. (niv)

Then Judah went up to him and said:“ Pardon your servant, my lord, let me speak a word to my lord. Do not be angry with your servant, though you are equal to Pharaoh himself.My lord asked his servants,‘ Do you have a father or a brother?’And we answered,‘ We have an aged father, and there is a young son born to him in his old age. His brother is dead, and he is the only one of his mother’s sons left, and his father loves him.’“ Then you said to your servants,‘ Bring him down to me so I can see him for myself.’And we said to my lord,‘ The boy cannot leave his father; if he leaves him, his father will die.’But you told your servants,‘ Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.’When we went back to your servant my father, we told him what my lord had said.“ Then our father said,‘ Go back and buy a little more food.’But we said,‘ We cannot go down. Only if our youngest brother is with us will we go. We cannot see the man’s face unless our youngest brother is with us.’“ Your servant my father said to us,‘ You know that my wife bore me two sons.One of them went away from me, and I said,“ He has surely been torn to pieces.” And I have not seen him since.If you take this one from me too and harm comes to him, you will bring my gray head down to the grave in misery.’“ So now, if the boy is not with us when I go back to your servant my father, and if my father, whose life is closely bound up with the boy’s life,sees that the boy isn’t there, he will die. Your servants will bring the gray head of our father down to the grave in sorrow.Your servant guaranteed the boy’s safety to my father. I said,‘ If I do not bring him back to you, I will bear the blame before you, my father, all my life!’“ Now then, please let your servant remain here as my lord’s slave in place of the boy, and let the boy return with his brothers.How can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? No! Do not let me see the misery that would come on my father.” (niv)
