Exodus 18:20 in Context — Exodus 18
18 Tu t’épuiseras toi-même, et tu épuiseras ce peuple qui est avec toi; car la chose est au-dessus de tes forces, tu ne pourras pas y suffire seul.
19 Maintenant écoute ma voix; je vais te donner un conseil, et que Dieu soit avec toi! Sois l’interprète du peuple auprès de Dieu, et porte les affaires devant Dieu.
20 Enseigne-leur les ordonnances et les lois; et fais-leur connaître le chemin qu’ils doivent suivre, et ce qu’ils doivent faire.
21 Choisis parmi tout le peuple des hommes capables, craignant Dieu, des hommes intègres, ennemis de la cupidité; établis-les sur eux comme chefs de mille, chefs de cent, chefs de cinquante et chefs de dix.
22 Qu’ils jugent le peuple en tout temps; qu’ils portent devant toi toutes les affaires importantes, et qu’ils prononcent eux-mêmes sur les petites causes. Allège ta charge, et qu’ils la portent avec toi.
