Exodus 18:18-20

New Century Version

¹⁸ You and the people who come to you will get too tired. This is too much work for you; you can’t do it by yourself. ¹⁹ Now listen to me, and I will give you some advice. I want God to be with you. You must speak to God for the people and tell him about their disagreements. ²⁰ Warn them about the laws and teachings, and teach them the right way to live and what they should do.
