10. I alone am not able to bear you: for the Lord your God hath multiplied you, and you are this day as the stars of heaven, for multitude.
11. (The Lord God of your fathers add to this number many thousands, and bless you as he hath spoken.)
12. I alone am not able to bear your business, and the charge of you and your differences.
13. Let me have from among you wise and understanding men, and such whose conversation is approved among your tribes, that I may appoint them your rulers.
14. Then you answered me: The thing is good which thou meanest to do.
15. And I took out of your tribes men wise and honourable, and appointed them rulers, tribunes, and centurions, and officers over fifties, and over tens, who might teach you all things.
