And Moses said unto them. Why chide ye with me i wherefore do ye tempt the Lord? 3 And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against! Moses, and laid, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst? 4 And Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What lhall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me. 5 «J And the Lo R n said unto Moses, Co on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel: and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine band, and go. $ Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou (halt smite the rock, and there (hall come water out of it, that the people may drink.

What is this thing that thou doelt to the people? why fittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even? 15 And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God: 16 When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God and his laws. 17 And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good. 18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone. 19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be? with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God: 20 And thou (halt teach them ordinances and laws, and malt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. 21 Moreover thou (halt provide out of all the people able men, such as sear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and plucesuch over them, /# be nil ers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tenss 22 And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it ihall be, that every great matter they (hall bring unto tliee, but every small matter they (hall judge: so (hall it be easier for thyself, and they (hall bear the burden with thee. 23 If thou soak do this thing, and God command thee/e, then thou slialt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace. 14 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said. »5 And GaJtaHeti <witA Moses. 15 And Moses chose able men out of US lirae!, and made them beads over the pedpJe, rulers of thousands, rulers of aMdreas, rulers of fifties, and rulers of œa. :5 And they judged the people at all irUons: the hard causes they brought into Moses, but every smsll matter they jadgtd themselves. 27 And Moses let his father in law deprr; and he went his way into his c*ra and.
