11 O SENHOR Deus de vossos pais acrescente sobre vós como sois mil vezes, e vos abençoe, como vos prometeu!

12 Como levarei eu só vossos problemas, vossas cargas, e vossos pleitos?

13 Dai-me dentre vós, de vossas tribos, homens sábios e entendidos e experientes, para que eu os ponha por vossos chefes.

14 E me respondestes, e dissestes: Bom é fazer o que disseste.

15 E tomei os principais de vossas tribos, homens sábios e experientes, e os pus por chefes sobre vós, chefes de milhares, e chefes de centenas, e chefes de cinquenta, e líderes de dez, e governadores a vossas tribos.
