Exodus 18:18-20

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁸ You will certainly wear out both yourself and these people who are with you, for the work is too much for you. You are not able to handle this alone. ¹⁹ Listen to me now. I will give you advice, and may God be with you. Represent the people before God, and bring their disputes to God. ²⁰ Instruct them about the regulations and laws, and show them the way they are to live and the things that they are to do.
