So kingH4428 SolomonH8010 was kingH4428 over all IsraelH3478.
And these were the princesH8269 which he had; AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, {priest: or, chief officer}
ElihorephH456 and AhiahH281, the sonsH1121 of ShishaH7894, scribesH5608; JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of AhiludH286, the recorderH2142. {scribes: or, secretaries} {recorder: or, remembrancer}

And AhisharH301 was over the householdH1004: and AdoniramH141 the sonH1121 of AbdaH5653 was over the tributeH4522. {tribute: or, levy}
And SolomonH8010 had twelveH8147+H6240 officersH5324 over all IsraelH3478, which provided victualsH3557 for the kingH4428 and his householdH1004: each manH259 his monthH2320 in a yearH8141 made provisionH3557.
And these are their namesH8034: The son of HurH1133, in mountH2022 EphraimH669: {The son…: or, Benhur}
The son of DekarH1128+H1857, in MakazH4739, and in ShaalbimH8169, and BethshemeshH1053, and ElonbethhananH358: {The son…: or, BenDekar}
The son of HesedH1136+H2618, in ArubothH700; to him pertained SochohH7755, and all the landH776 of HepherH2660: {The son…: or, BenHeseb}
The son of AbinadabH1125, in all the regionH5299 of DorH1756; which had TaphathH2955 the daughterH1323 of SolomonH8010 to wifeH802: {The son…: or, BenaBinadab}
BaanaH1195 the sonH1121 of AhiludH286; to him pertained TaanachH8590 and MegiddoH4023, and all BethsheanH1052, which is byH681 ZartanahH6891 beneath JezreelH3157, from BethsheanH1052 to AbelmeholahH65, even unto the place that is beyondH5676 JokneamH3361:
The son of GeberH1127, in RamothgileadH1568+H7433; to him pertained the townsH2333 of JairH2971 the sonH1121 of ManassehH4519, which are in GileadH1568; to him also pertained the regionH2256 of ArgobH709, which is in BashanH1316, threescoreH8346 greatH1419 citiesH5892 with wallsH2346 and brasenH5178 barsH1280: {The son…: or, BenGeber}
AhinadabH292 the sonH1121 of IddoH5714 had MahanaimH4266: {Mahanaim: or, to Mahanaim}
AhimaazH290 was in NaphtaliH5321; he also tookH3947 BasmathH1315 the daughterH1323 of SolomonH8010 to wifeH802:
BaanahH1195 the sonH1121 of HushaiH2365 was in AsherH836 and in AlothH1175:
JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of ParuahH6515, in IssacharH3485:

GeberH1398 the sonH1121 of UriH221 was in the countryH776 of GileadH1568, in the countryH776 of SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, and of OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316; and he was the onlyH259 officerH5333 which was in the landH776.
JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478 were manyH7227, as the sandH2344 which is by the seaH3220 in multitudeH7230, eatingH398 and drinkingH8354, and making merryH8056.
And SolomonH8010 reignedH4910 over all kingdomsH4467 from the riverH5104 unto the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430, and unto the borderH1366 of EgyptH4714: they broughtH5066 presentsH4503, and servedH5647 SolomonH8010 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
And Solomon'sH8010 provisionH3899 for oneH259 dayH3117 was thirtyH7970 measuresH3734 of fine flourH5560, and threescoreH8346 measuresH3734 of mealH7058, {provision: Heb. bread} {measures: Heb. cors}
TenH6235 fatH1277 oxenH1241, and twentyH6242 oxenH1241 out of the pasturesH7471, and an hundredH3967 sheepH6629, beside hartsH354, and roebucksH6643, and fallowdeerH3180, and fattedH75 fowlH1257.
For he had dominionH7287 over all the region on this sideH5676 the riverH5104, from TiphsahH8607 even to AzzahH5804, over all the kingsH4428 on this sideH5676 the riverH5104: and he had peaceH7965 on all sidesH5650+H5676 round aboutH5439 him.
And JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 safelyH983, every manH376 under his vineH1612 and under his fig treeH8384, from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884, all the daysH3117 of SolomonH8010. {safely: Heb. confidently}
And SolomonH8010 had fortyH705 thousandH505 stallsH723 of horsesH5483 for his chariotsH4817, and twelveH8147+H6240 thousandH505 horsemenH6571.
And those officersH5324 provided victualH3557 for kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and for all that cameH7131 unto kingH4428 Solomon'sH8010 tableH7979, every manH376 in his monthH2320: they lackedH5737 nothingH1697.
BarleyH8184 also and strawH8401 for the horsesH5483 and dromedariesH7409 broughtH935 they unto the placeH4725 where the officers were, every manH376 according to his chargeH4941. {dromedaries: or, mules, or, swift beasts}
And GodH430 gaveH5414 SolomonH8010 wisdomH2451 and understandingH8394 exceedingH3966 muchH7235, and largenessH7341 of heartH3820, even as the sandH2344 that is on the seaH3220 shoreH8193.
And Solomon'sH8010 wisdomH2451 excelledH7235 the wisdomH2451 of all the childrenH1121 of the east countryH6924, and all the wisdomH2451 of EgyptH4714.
For he was wiserH2449 than all menH120; than EthanH387 the EzrahiteH250, and HemanH1968, and ChalcolH3633, and DardaH1862, the sonsH1121 of MaholH4235: and his fameH8034 was in all nationsH1471 round aboutH5439.
And he spakeH1696 threeH7969 thousandH505 proverbsH4912: and his songsH7892 were a thousandH505 and fiveH2568.
And he spakeH1696 of treesH6086, from the cedar treeH730 that is in LebanonH3844 even unto the hyssopH231 that springeth outH3318 of the wallH7023: he spakeH1696 also of beastsH929, and of fowlH5775, and of creeping thingsH7431, and of fishesH1709.
And there cameH935 of all peopleH5971 to hearH8085 the wisdomH2451 of SolomonH8010, from all kingsH4428 of the earthH776, which had heardH8085 of his wisdomH2451.

The proverbsH4912 of SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478;
To knowH3045 wisdomH2451 and instructionH4148; to perceiveH995 the wordsH561 of understandingH998;
To receiveH3947 the instructionH4148 of wisdomH7919, justiceH6664, and judgmentH4941, and equityH4339; {equity: Heb. equities}
To giveH5414 subtiltyH6195 to the simpleH6612, to the young manH5288 knowledgeH1847 and discretionH4209. {discretion: or, advisement}
A wiseH2450 man will hearH8085, and will increaseH3254 learningH3948; and a man of understandingH995 shall attainH7069 unto wise counselsH8458:
To understandH995 a proverbH4912, and the interpretationH4426; the wordsH1697 of the wiseH2450, and their dark sayingsH2420. {the interpretation: or, an eloquent speech}
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is the beginningH7225 of knowledgeH1847: but foolsH191 despiseH936 wisdomH2451 and instructionH4148. {the beginning: or, the principal part}
My sonH1121, hearH8085 the instructionH4148 of thy fatherH1, and forsakeH5203 not the lawH8451 of thy motherH517:
For they shall be an ornamentH3880 of graceH2580 unto thy headH7218, and chainsH6060 about thy neckH1621. {an…: Heb. an adding}
My sonH1121, if sinnersH2400 enticeH6601 thee, consentH14 thou not.
If they sayH559, ComeH3212 with us, let us lay waitH693 for bloodH1818, let us lurkH6845 privily for the innocentH5355 without causeH2600:
Let us swallow them upH1104 aliveH2416 as the graveH7585; and wholeH8549, as those that go downH3381 into the pitH953:
We shall findH4672 all preciousH3368 substanceH1952, we shall fillH4390 our housesH1004 with spoilH7998:
CastH5307 in thy lotH1486 amongH8432 us; let us all have oneH259 purseH3599:
My sonH1121, walkH3212 not thou in the wayH1870 with them; refrainH4513 thy footH7272 from their pathH5410:
For their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451, and make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 bloodH1818.
Surely in vainH2600 the netH7568 is spreadH2219 in the sightH5869 of any birdH1167+H3671. {in the…: Heb. in the eyes of every thing that hath a wing}
And they lay waitH693 for their own bloodH1818; they lurk privilyH6845 for their own livesH5315.
So are the waysH734 of every one that is greedyH1214 of gainH1215; which taketh awayH3947 the lifeH5315 of the ownersH1167 thereof.
WisdomH2454 criethH7442 withoutH2351; she utterethH5414 her voiceH6963 in the streetsH7339: {Wisdom: Heb. Wisdoms, that is, Excellent wisdom}
She criethH7121 in the chief placeH7218 of concourseH1993, in the openingsH6607 of the gatesH8179: in the cityH5892 she utterethH559 her wordsH561, saying,
How long, ye simple onesH6612, will ye loveH157 simplicityH6612? and the scornersH3887 delightH2530 in their scorningH3944, and foolsH3684 hateH8130 knowledgeH1847?
TurnH7725 you at my reproofH8433: behold, I will pour outH5042 my spiritH7307 unto you, I will make knownH3045 my wordsH1697 unto you.
Because I have calledH7121, and ye refusedH3985; I have stretched outH5186 my handH3027, and no man regardedH7181;
But ye have set at noughtH6544 all my counselH6098, and wouldH14 none of my reproofH8433:
I also will laughH7832 at your calamityH343; I will mockH3932 when your fearH6343 comethH935;
When your fearH6343 comethH935 as desolationH7722+H7584, and your destructionH343 comethH857 as a whirlwindH5492; when distressH6869 and anguishH6695 comethH935 upon you.
Then shall they callH7121 upon me, but I will not answerH6030; they shall seek me earlyH7836, but they shall not findH4672 me:
For that they hatedH8130 knowledgeH1847, and did not chooseH977 the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068:
They wouldH14 none of my counselH6098: they despisedH5006 all my reproofH8433.
Therefore shall they eatH398 of the fruitH6529 of their own wayH1870, and be filledH7646 with their own devicesH4156.
The songH7892 of songsH7892, which is Solomon'sH8010.
Let him kissH5401 me with the kissesH5390 of his mouthH6310: for thy loveH1730 is betterH2896 than wineH3196. {thy…: Heb. thy loves}
Because of the savourH7381 of thy goodH2896 ointmentsH8081 thy nameH8034 is as ointmentH8081 poured forthH7324, therefore do the virginsH5959 loveH157 thee.
DrawH4900 me, we will runH7323 afterH310 thee: the kingH4428 hath broughtH935 me into his chambersH2315: we will be gladH1523 and rejoiceH8055 in thee, we will rememberH2142 thy loveH1730 more than wineH3196: the uprightH4339 loveH157 thee. {the upright…: or, they love thee uprightly}
I am blackH7838, but comelyH5000, O ye daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, as the tentsH168 of KedarH6938, as the curtainsH3407 of SolomonH8010.
LookH7200 not upon me, because I am blackH7840, because the sunH8121 hath lookedH7805 upon me: my mother'sH517 childrenH1121 were angryH2787 with me; they madeH7760 me the keeperH5201 of the vineyardsH3754; but mine own vineyardH3754 have I not keptH5201.
TellH5046 me, O thou whom my soulH5315 lovethH157, where thou feedestH7462, whereH349 thou makest thy flock to restH7257 at noonH6672: forH4100 why should I be as one that turneth asideH5844 by the flocksH5739 of thy companionsH2270? {as one…: or, as one that is veiled}
If thou knowH3045 not, O thou fairestH3303 among womenH802, go thy way forthH3318 by the footstepsH6119 of the flockH6629, and feedH7462 thy kidsH1429 beside the shepherds'H7462 tentsH4908.
I have comparedH1819 thee, O my loveH7474, to a company of horsesH5484 in Pharaoh'sH6547 chariotsH7393.
Thy cheeksH3895 are comelyH4998 with rowsH8447 of jewels, thy neckH6677 with chainsH2737 of gold.
We will makeH6213 thee bordersH8447 of goldH2091 with studsH5351 of silverH3701.
While the kingH4428 sitteth at his tableH4524, my spikenardH5373 sendeth forthH5414 the smellH7381 thereof.
A bundleH6872 of myrrhH4753 is my wellbelovedH1730 unto me; he shall lieH3885 all night betwixt my breastsH7699.
My belovedH1730 is unto me as a clusterH811 of camphireH3724 in the vineyardsH3754 of EngediH5872. {camphire: or, cypress}
Behold, thou art fairH3303, my loveH7474; behold, thou art fairH3303; thou hast doves'H3123 eyesH5869. {my love: or, my companion}
Behold, thou art fairH3303, my belovedH1730, yea, pleasantH5273: also our bedH6210 is greenH7488.
The beamsH6982 of our houseH1004 are cedarH730, and our raftersH7351+H7351 of firH1266. {rafters: or, galleries}
