Some were responsible for a thousand people, some for a hundred, some for fifty, and some for ten. “At that time I instructed the judges, ‘You must hear the cases of your fellow Israelites and the foreigners living among you.

Bring me any cases that are too difficult for you, and I will handle them.’ “At that time I gave you instructions about everything you were to do.
