Moreover seek out among all
the people, men of activity which fear God, and men that are true
and hate covetousness: and make them heads over the people,
captains over thousands, over hundreds, over fifty, and over ten.
And let them judge the people at all seasons: If there be any
great matter, let them bring that unto thee, and let them judge
all small causes them selves, and ease thy self, and let them bear
with thee. If thou shalt do this thing, then thou shalt be able to
endure that which God chargeth thee with all, and all this people
shall go to their places quietly. And Moses heard the voice of his
father-in-law, and did all that he had said, and chose active men
out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, captains
over thousands, over hundreds, over fifty and over ten. And they
judged the people at all seasons, and brought the hard causes unto
Moses: and judged all small matters them selves. And then Moses
let his father-in-law depart, and he went in to his own land.
Chapter .xix.

Egypt: the same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai. For
they were departed from Raphidim, and were come to the desert of
Sinai and had pitched their tents in the wilderness.
