4:20 Shelomoh’s prosperity

20Now Yehudah and Israel had become as numerous as the sand on the seashore. They had plenty to eat and drink and they were contented. 21Shelomoh controlled all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines and as far as the Egyptian border, so they brought tribute to him and followed his orders during his lifetime.[ref]

22The daily requirements for the palace included five tonnes of fine flour and eleven tonnes of coarse flour, 23ten fattened cattle, twenty pasture cattle, one hundred sheep, wild game including deer, gazelle, and roebuck, and fattened fowls.

24He controlled all the kingdoms west of the Euphrates from Tifsah in the north-east to Gaza in the south-west, and there was peace with all his neighbours. 25So all Yehudah and Israel lived peacefully, from Dan in the north to Beersheva in the southeveryone focusing on their own property.

26Shelomoh had forty thousand stalls for his chariot horses, and twelve thousand horsemen.[ref] 27The district governors provided supplies for the palace—one governor for each month. They ensured that nothing was lacking for the king and his visitors. 28They also provided the barley and straw for the chariot horses and the other horses, delivered to the designated locations.
