Deuteronomy 1:9-12

At that time I said, “I am not able to take care of you by myself. The LORD your God has made you grow in number so that there are as many of you as there are stars in the sky. I pray that the LORD, the God of your ancestors, will give you a thousand times more people and do all the wonderful things he promised. But I cannot take care of your problems, your troubles, and your arguments by myself.
