Deuteronomy 1:12-17

How
<0349>
can I myself alone bear
<05375> (8799)
your cumbrance
<02960>_,
and your burden
<04853>_,
and your strife
<07379>_?
Take
<03051> (8798)
you wise
<02450>
men
<0582>_,
and understanding
<0995> (8737)_,
and known
<03045> (8803)
among your tribes
<07626>_,
and I will make
<07760> (8799)
them rulers
<07218>
over you. {Take: Heb. Give}
And ye answered
<06030> (8799)
me, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
The thing
<01697>
which thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)
[is] good
<02896>
[for us] to do
<06213> (8800)_.
So I took
<03947> (8799)
the chief
<07218>
of your tribes
<07626>_,
wise
<02450>
men
<0582>_,
and known
<03045> (8803)_,
and made
<05414> (8799)
them heads
<07218>
over you, captains
<08269>
over thousands
<0505>_,
and captains
<08269>
over hundreds
<03967>_,
and captains
<08269>
over fifties
<02572>_,
and captains
<08269>
over tens
<06235>_,
and officers
<07860> (8802)
among your tribes
<07626>_.
{made: Heb. gave}
And I charged
<06680> (8762)
your judges
<08199> (8802)
at that time
<06256>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Hear
<08085> (8800)
[the causes] between your brethren
<0251>_,
and judge
<08199> (8804)
righteously
<06664>
between [every] man
<0376>
and his brother
<0251>_,
and the stranger
<01616>
[that is] with him.
Ye shall not respect
<05234> (8686)
persons
<06440>
in judgment
<04941>_;
[but] ye shall hear
<08085> (8799)
the small
<06996>
as well as the great
<01419>_;
ye shall not be afraid
<01481> (8799)
of the face
<06440>
of man
<0376>_;
for the judgment
<04941>
[is] God's
<0430>_:
and the cause
<01697>
that is too hard
<07185> (8799)
for you, bring
<07126> (8686)
[it] unto me, and I will hear
<08085> (8804)
it. {respect...: Heb. acknowledge faces}
