21 Be to, išsirink iš tautos sumanius, Dievo bijančius, patikimus, negodžius vyrus, paskirk juos tūkstantininkais, šimtininkais, penkiasdešimtininkais ir dešimtininkais,
22 ir tegu jie teisia žmones. Kiekvieną didelę bylą jie perduos tau, o mažas bylas spręs patys. Tau bus lengviau, ir jie pasidalins naštą su tavimi.
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.
