Exodus 18:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 So Moses [a]obeyed the voice of his father-in-law, and did all that he had said:
25 And Moses chose men of courage out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers over thousands, rulers over hundreds, rulers over fifties, and rulers over tens.
26 And they judged the people at all seasons, but they brought the hard causes to Moses: for they judged all small matters themselves.
