Numbers 11:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 Therefore if thou deal thus with me, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy [a]sight, kill me, that I behold not my misery.
16 ¶ Then the Lord said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the Elders of Israel, whom thou knowest, that they are the Elders of the people, and governors over them, and bring them unto the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and let them stand there with thee.
17 And I will come down, and talk with thee there, [b]and take of the Spirit, which is upon thee, and put upon them, and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee: so thou shalt not bear it alone.
