Exodus 18:19-23
WEB · Bible Passage
Bible Text
[19] Listen now to my voice. I will give you counsel, and God be with you. You represent the people before God, and bring the causes to God. [20] You shall teach them the statutes and the laws, and shall show them the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do. [21] Moreover you shall provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God: men of truth, hating unjust gain; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. [22] Let them judge the people at all times. It shall be that every great matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they shall judge themselves. So shall it be easier for you, and they shall share the load with you. [23] If you will do this thing, and God commands you so, then you will be able to endure, and all of these people also will go to their place in peace."
