*
Judah and Israel were many ,
as the sand which is by the sea in multitude ,
eating and drinking ,
and making merry .
*
And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the river unto the land of the Philistines ,
and unto the border of Egypt :
they brought presents ,
and served Solomon all the days of his life .
*
And Solomon '
s provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour ,
and threescore measures of meal ,
*
Ten fat oxen ,
and twenty oxen out of the pastures ,
and an hundred sheep ,
beside harts ,
and roebucks ,
and fallowdeer ,
and fatted fowl .
*
For he had dominion over all the region on this side the river ,
from Tiphsah even to Azzah ,
over all the kings on this side the river :
and he had peace on all sides round about him .
*
And Judah and Israel dwelt safely ,
every man under his vine and under his fig tree ,
from Dan even to Beersheba ,
all the days of Solomon .
*
And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots ,
and twelve thousand horsemen .
*
And those officers provided victual for king Solomon ,
and for all that came unto king Solomon '
s table ,
every man in his month :
they lacked nothing .
*
Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where the officers were ,
every man according to his charge .
