9 And I spake vnto you the same ceason sayinge: I am not able to beare you my selfe alone.
10 For the Lorde youre God had multiplyed you: and beholde, ye are thys daye as the starres of heauen in nombr
11 (the Lorde God of youre fathers make you a thousande tymes so many moo as ye are, and blesse you as he hath promysed you)
12 howe can I my selfe alone, beare the combraunce, charge and stryfe that is amonge you?
13 brynge (from amonge you) men of wysdome and of vnderstandynge, and experte, accordynge to youre trybes, and I wyll make them ruelars ouer you.
14 And ye answered me and sayde: that whyche thou hast spoken is good for vs to do.
15 And out of youre trybes I toke the captaynes, (men of wysdome and that were experte) and made them ruelars ouer you: captaynes ouer thousandes & ouer hundredes ouer fyftye and ouer ten, and offycers amonge youre trybes.
16 And I charged youre Iudges that same tyme saying: heare the cause of your brethren and iudge ryghteously betwene euery man and hys brother, and the straunger that is with hym.
17 Se that ye knowe no faces in Iudgement: but heare the small as well as the greate, and be afrayed of no man, for the iudgement is Gods. And the cause that is to harde for you, brynge vnto me, and I will heare it.
