02:018:020 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew
           them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they
           must do.

02:018:021 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men,
           such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place
           such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of
           hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens: 

02:018:022 And let them judge the people at all seasons:  and it shall be,
           that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every
           small matter they shall judge:  so shall it be easier for
           thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.

02:018:023 If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then
           thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also
           go to their place in peace.

02:018:024 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did
           all that he had said.

02:018:025 And 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.

02:018:026 And they judged the people at all seasons:  the hard causes
           they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged
           themselves.

02:018:027 And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way
           into his own land.

02:019:001 In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone
           forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into
           the wilderness of Sinai.

02:019:002 For they were departed from Rephidim, and were come to the
           desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there
           Israel camped before the mount.

02:019:003 And Moses went up unto God, and the lord called unto him out
           of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of
           Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;

02:019:004 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you
           on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto myself.

02:019:005 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my
           covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above
           all people:  for all the earth is mine: 

02:019:006 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy
           nation.  These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the
           children of Israel.

02:019:007 And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and
           laid before their faces all these words which the lord
           commanded him.

02:019:008 And all the people answered together, and said, All that the
           lord hath spoken we will do.  And Moses returned the words of
           the people unto the lord.
