They should judge the people at all times. Then they can bring you every important case but judge every minor case themselves. In this way you will lighten your load, and they will bear it with you.

Then I will come down and speak with you there. I will take some of the Spirit who is on you and put the Spirit on them. They will help you bear the burden of the people, so that you do not have to bear it by yourself.

They judged the people at all times; they would bring the hard cases to Moses, but they would judge every minor case themselves.

Her son cursed and blasphemed the Name, and they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith, a daughter of Dibri of the tribe of Dan.)

Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the entire community.

They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the entire community at the entrance to the tent of meeting and said,

The family leaders from the clan of the descendants of Gilead—the son of Machir, son of Manasseh—who were from the clans of the sons of Joseph, approached and addressed Moses and the leaders who were over the Israelite families.

“You will certainly wear out both yourself and these people who are with you, because the task is too heavy for you. You can’t do it alone.

Do not show partiality when deciding a case; listen to small and great alike. Do not be intimidated by anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too difficult for you, and I will hear it.

“If a case is too difficult for you—concerning bloodshed, lawsuits, or assaults—cases disputed at your gates, you must go up to the place the Lord your God chooses.

And for this reason you pay taxes, since the authorities are God’s public servants, continually attending to these tasks.
