Exodus 18:24-27 ▼

24 So Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said.

25 And Moses chose excellent men out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.

26 And they judged the people at all times; the difficult matter they would bring to Moses, but every minor matter they themselves would judge.

27 Then Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went his way into his own land.
