Deuteronomy 1:11-13
Deuteronomy 1: 11 to 13
11 May the LORD, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised!
12 But how can I bear your problems and your burdens and your disputes all by myself?
13 Choose some wise, understanding and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will set them over you.”
