21 But for the rest, take from among the people able men, such as have the fear of God, true men hating profits wrongly made; and put such men over them, to be captains of thousands, captains of hundreds and of fifties and of tens;

22 And let them be judges in the causes of the people at all times: and let them put before you all important questions, but in small things let them give decisions themselves: in this way, it will be less hard for you, and they will take the weight off you.

21 你要从人民中间选出有才能的人, 就是敬畏 神、忠实可信、恨恶不义之财的人, 设立他们作千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长, 去管理人民,

22 使他们随时可以审判人民的案件; 所有大事件, 他们要带到你这里来; 所有小事件, 他们可以自己审判。这样, 你就轻省些, 他们也可以和你一同分担此事。
