2καὶ οὗτοι ἄρχοντες οἳ ἦσαν αὐτῷ. Ἀζαρίας υἱὸς Σαδὼκ
2and these were his chief officials: Azariah son of Zadok was the priest;

3Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, were secretaries; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;

7καὶ τῷ Σαλωμὼν δώδεκα καθεσταμένοι ἐπὶ πάντα Ἰσραὴλ χορηγεῖν τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ· μῆνα ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἐγίνετο ἐπὶ τὸν ἕνα χορηγεῖν.
7Solomon had twelve governors over all Israel to provide food for the king and his household. Each one would arrange provisions for one month of the year,
