Exodus 18:20-22

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁰ “and warn them of the ordinances, and of the laws. And show them the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do.

²¹ “Moreover, provide men of courage among all the people, men who fear God, dealing truly, hating covetousness. And appoint over them rulers over thousands, rulers over hundreds, rulers over fifties, and rulers over tens.

²² “And let them judge the people in all seasons. But, let them bring every great matter to you. And let them judge all small causes. So, it shall be easier for you when they shall bear the burden with you.
