Exodus 18:23-27 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

23. If you do this thing and God so commands you, then you will be able to endure, and all these people also will go to their place in peace."

24. So Moses listened to his father-in-law and did all that he had said.

25. Moses chose able men out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens.

26. They judged the people at all times; the difficult dispute they would bring to Moses, but every minor dispute they themselves would judge.

27. Then Moses bade his father-in-law farewell, and he went his way into his own land.
