1 Kings 4:20–28

²⁰Juda and Israel were innumerable, as the sand of the sea in multitude; eating and drinking, and rejoicing.

²¹And Solomon had under him all the kingdoms, from the river to the land of the Philistines, even to the border of Egypt: and they brought him presents, and served him all the days of his life.

²²And the provision of Solomon, for each day, was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal;

²³Ten fat oxen, and twenty out of the pastures, and a hundred rams; besides venison of harts, roes, and buffles, and fatted fowls.

²⁴For he had all the country which was beyond the river, from Thaphsa to Gazan, and all the kings of those countries: and he had peace on every side round about.

²⁵And Juda, and Israel, dwelt without any fear, every one under his vine, and under his fig tree, from Dan to Bersabee, all the days of Solomon.

²⁶And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of chariot horses, and twelve thousand for the saddle.

²⁷And the foresaid governors of the king fed them; and they furnished the necessaries also for king Solomon’s table, with great care, in their time.

²⁸They brought barley also, and straw for the horses and beasts, to the place where the king was, according as it was appointed them.
