Exodus 18:17 - The Message
Moses father-in-law said, "This is no way to go about it. Youll burn out, and the people right along with you. This is way too much for you—you cant do this alone. Now listen to me. Let me tell you how to do this so that God will be in this with you. Be there for the people before God, but let the matters of concern be presented to God. Your job is to teach them the rules and instructions, to show them how to live, what to do. And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for competent men—men who fear God, men of integrity, men who are incorruptible—and appoint them as leaders over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten. Theyll be responsible for the everyday work of judging among the people. Theyll bring the hard cases to you, but in the routine cases theyll be the judges. They will share your load and that will make it easier for you. If you handle the work this way, youll have the strength to carry out whatever God commands you, and the people in their settings will flourish also."
