[1] Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses and for Israel his people, how Yahweh had brought Israel out of Egypt. [2] Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, received Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her away, [3] and her two sons. The name of one son was Gershom,ⓘ for Moses said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land”. [4] The name of the other was Eliezer,ⓘ for he said, “My father’s God was my help and delivered me from Pharaoh’s sword.” [5] Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with Moses’ sons and his wife to Moses into the wilderness where he was encamped, at the Mountain of God. [6] He said to Moses, “I, your father-in-law Jethro, have come to you with your wife, and her two sons with her.” [7] Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, and bowed and kissed him. They asked each other of their welfare, and they came into the tent. [8] Moses told his father-in-law all that Yahweh had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all the hardships that had come on them on the way, and how Yahweh delivered them. [9] Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which Yahweh had done to Israel, in that he had delivered them out of the hand of the Egyptians. [10] Jethro said, “Blessed be Yahweh, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh; who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians. [11] Now I know that Yahweh is greater than all gods because of the way that they treated people arrogantly.” [12] Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God. Aaron came with all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law before God. [13] On the next day, Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood around Moses from the morning to the evening. [14] When Moses’ father-in-law saw all that he did to the people, he said, “What is this thing that you do for the people? Why do you sit alone, and all the people stand around you from morning to evening?” [15] Moses said to his father-in-law, “Because the people come to me to inquire of God. [16] When they have a matter, they come to me, and I judge between a man and his neighbor, and I make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.” [17] Moses’ father-in-law said to him, “The thing that you do is not good. [18] You will surely wear away, both you, and this people that is with you; for the thing is too heavy for you. You are not able to perform it yourself alone. [19] Listen now to my voice. I will give you counsel, and God be with you. You represent the people before God, and bring the causes to God. [20] You shall teach them the statutes and the laws, and shall show them the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do. [21] Moreover you shall provide out of all the people able men which fear God: men of truth, hating unjust gain; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. [22] Let them judge the people at all times. It shall be that every great matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they shall judge themselves. So shall it be easier for you, and they shall share the load with you. [23] If you will do this thing, and God commands you so, then you will be able to endure, and all these people also will go to their place in peace.” [24] So Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law, and did all that he had said. [25] Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. [26] They judged the people at all times. They brought the hard cases to Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves. [27] Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went his way into his own land.

Jethro
[1] When Jethro, H3503 the priest H3548 of Midian, H4080 Moses’ H4872 father in law, H2859 heard H8085 H853 of all H3605 that H834 God H430 had done H6213 for Moses, H4872 and for Israel H3478 his people, H5971 and that H3588 the Lord H3068 had brought H3318 H853 Israel H3478 out of Egypt; H4714 [2] then Jethro, H3503 Moses’ H4872 father in law, H2859 took H3947 H853 Zipporah, H6855 Moses’ H4872 wife, H802 after H310 he had sent her back, H7964 [3] and H853 her two H8147 sons; H1121 of which H834 the name H8034 of the one H259 was Gershom; H1647ⓘ for H3588 he said, H559 I have been H1961 an alien H1616 in a strange H5237 land: H776 [4] and the name H8034 of the other H259 was Eliezer; H461ⓘ for H3588 the God H430 of my father, H1 said he, was mine help, H5828 and delivered me H5337 from the sword H2719 of Pharaoh: H6547 [5] and Jethro, H3503 Moses’ H4872 father in law, H2859 came H935 with his sons H1121 and his wife H802 unto H413 Moses H4872 into H413 the wilderness, H4057 where H834 he H1931 encamped H2583 H8033 at the mount H2022 of God: H430 [6] and he said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 I H589 thy father in law H2859 Jethro H3503 am come H935 unto thee, H413 and thy wife, H802 and her two H8147 sons H1121 with her. H5973 [7] And Moses H4872 went out H3318 to meet H7125 his father in law, H2859 and did obeisance, H7812 and kissed H5401 him; and they asked H7592 each H376 other H7453 of their welfare;§ H7965 and they came H935 into the tent. H168 [8] And Moses H4872 told H5608 his father in law H2859 H853 all H3605 that H834 the Lord H3068 had done H6213 unto Pharaoh H6547 and to the Egyptians H4714 for H5921 Israel’s H3478 sake, H182 and H853 all H3605 the travail H8513 that H834 had come H4672 upon H4672 them H4672§ by the way, H1870 and how the Lord H3068 delivered H5337 them. H5337 [9] And Jethro H3503 rejoiced H2302 for H5921 all H3605 the goodness H2896 which H834 the Lord H3068 had done H6213 to Israel, H3478 whom H834 he had delivered H5337 out of the hand H3027 of the Egyptians. H4714 [10] And Jethro H3503 said, H559 Blessed H1288 be the Lord, H3068 who H834 hath delivered H5337 you H853 out of the hand H3027 of the Egyptians, H4714 and out of the hand H3027 of Pharaoh, H6547 who H834 hath delivered H5337 H853 the people H5971 from under H8478 the hand H3027 of the Egyptians. H4714 [11] Now H6258 I know H3045 that H3588 the Lord H3068 is greater H1419 than all H3605 gods: H430 for H3588 in the thing H1697 wherein H834 they dealt proudly H2102 he was above them. H5921 [12] And Jethro, H3503 Moses’ H4872 father in law, H2859 took H3947 a burnt offering H5930 and sacrifices H2077 for God: H430 and Aaron H175 came, H935 and all H3605 the elders H2205 of Israel, H3478 to eat H398 bread H3899 with H5973 Moses’ H4872 father in law H2859 before H6440 God. H430 [13] And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow, H4283 that Moses H4872 sat H3427 to judge H8199 H853 the people: H5971 and the people H5971 stood H5975 by H5921 Moses H4872 from H4480 the morning H1242 unto H5704 the evening. H6153 [14] And when Moses’ H4872 father in law H2859 saw H7200 H853 all H3605 that H834 he H1931 did H6213 to the people, H5971 he said, H559 What H4100 is this H2088 thing H1697 that H834 thou H859 doest H6213 to the people? H5971 why H4069 sittest H3427 thou H859 thyself alone, H905 and all H3605 the people H5971 stand H5324 by thee H5921 from H4480 morning H1242 unto H5704 even? H6153 [15] And Moses H4872 said H559 unto his father in law, H2859 Because H3588 the people H5971 come H935 unto me H413 to enquire H1875 of God: H430 [16] when H3588 they have H1961 a matter, H1697 they come H935 unto me; H413 and I judge H8199 between H996 one H376 and H996 another, H7453§ and I H3045 do make H3045 them know H3045 H853 the statutes H2706 of God, H430 and H853 his laws. H8451 [17] And Moses’ H4872 father in law H2859 said H559 unto him, H413 The thing H1697 that H834 thou H859 doest H6213 is not H3808 good. H2896 [18] Thou wilt surely H5034 wear away, H5034§ both H1571 thou, H859 and H1571 this H2088 people H5971 that H834 is with thee: H5973 for H3588 this thing H1697 is too heavy H3515 for thee; H4480 thou art H3201 not H3808 able H3201 to perform it H6213 thyself alone. H905 [19] Hearken H8085 now H6258 unto my voice, H6963 I will give thee counsel, H3289 and God H430 shall be H1961 with thee: H5973 Be H1961 thou H859 for the people H5971 to God-ward, H4136 H430 that thou H859 mayest bring H935 H853 the causes H1697 unto H413 God: H430 [20] and thou shalt teach H2094 them H853 H853 ordinances H2706 and H853 laws, H8451 and shalt shew H3045 them H853 the way H1870 wherein they must walk, H3212 and H853 the work H4639 that H834 they must do. H6213 [21] Moreover thou H859 shalt provide H2372 out of all H3605 the people H5971 able H2428 men, H582 such as fear H3373 God, H430 men H582 of truth, H571 hating H8130 covetousness; H1215 and place H7760 such over them, H5921 to be rulers H8269 of thousands, H505 and rulers H8269 of hundreds, H3967 rulers H8269 of fifties, H2572 and rulers H8269 of tens: H6235 [22] and let them judge H8199 H853 the people H5971 at all H3605 seasons: H6256 and it shall be, H1961 that every H3605 great H1419 matter H1697 they shall bring H935 unto thee, H413 but every H3605 small H6996 matter H1697 they shall judge: H8199 H1992 so shall it be easier H7043 for thyself, H5921 and they shall bear H5375 the burden with thee. H854 [23] If H518 thou shalt do H6213 H853 this H2088 thing, H1697 and God H430 command H6680 thee H6680 so, then thou shalt be able H3201 to endure, H5975 and all H3605 this H2088 people H5971 shall H935 also H1571 go H935 to H5921 their place H4725 in peace. H7965 [24] So Moses H4872 hearkened H8085 to the voice H6963 of his father in law, H2859 and did H6213 all H3605 that H834 he had said. H559 [25] And Moses H4872 chose H977 able H2428 men H582 out of all H3605 Israel, H3478 and made H5414 them H853 heads H7218 over H5921 the people, H5971 rulers H8269 of thousands, H505 rulers H8269 of hundreds, H3967 rulers H8269 of fifties, H2572 and rulers H8269 of tens. H6235 [26] And they judged H8199 H853 the people H5971 at all H3605 seasons: H6256 H853 the hard H7186 causes H1697 they brought H935 unto H413 Moses, H4872 but every H3605 small H6996 matter H1697 they judged H8199 themselves. H1992 [27] And Moses H4872 let H7971 H853 his father in law H2859 depart; H7971 and he went H3212 his way into H413 his own land. H776Footnotes
