And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, [that] every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear [the burden] with thee (18:22) If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee [so], then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace (18:23) So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said (18:24) And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens (18:25) And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves (18:26) And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land
(18:27)
