Deuteronomy 1:10-21 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

10. Jehovah your God hath multiplied you, and lo, ye [are] to-day as the stars of the heavens for multitude;

11. Jehovah, God of your fathers, is adding to you, as ye [are], a thousand times, and doth bless you as He hath spoken to you.

12. `How do I bear by myself your pressure, and your burden, and your strife?

13. Give for yourselves men, wise and intelligent, and known to your tribes, and I set them for your heads;

14. and ye answer me and say, Good [is] the thing which thou hast spoken--to do.

15. `And I take the heads of your tribes, men, wise and known, and I appoint them heads over you, princes of thousands, and princes of hundreds, and princes of fifties, and princes of tens, and authorities, for your tribes.

16. And I command your judges at that time, saying, Hearkening between your brethren--then ye have judged righteousness between a man, and his brother, and his sojourner;

17. ye do not discern faces in judgment; as the little so the great ye do hear; ye are not afraid of the face of any, for the judgment is God's, and the thing which is too hard for you, ye bring near unto me, and I have heard it;

18. and I command you, at that time, all the things which ye do.

19. `And we journey from Horeb, and go [through] all that great and fearful wilderness which ye have seen--the way of the hill-country of the Amorite, as Jehovah our God hath commanded us, and we come in unto Kadesh-Barnea.

20. `And I say unto you, Ye have come in unto the hill-country of the Amorite, which Jehovah our God is giving to us;

21. see, Jehovah thy God hath set before thee the land; go up, possess, as Jehovah, God of thy fathers, hath spoken to thee; fear not, nor be affrighted.
