English Standard Version
21 Moreover, look for (A)able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. 22 And (B)let them judge the people at all times. (C)Every great matter they shall bring to you, but any small matter they shall decide themselves. So it will be easier for you, and they will (D)bear the burden with you.

Exodus 18:21-22
New International Version
21 But select capable men(A) from all the people—men who fear(B) God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain(C)—and appoint them as officials(D) over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens. 22 Have them serve as judges for the people at all times, but have them bring every difficult case(E) to you; the simple cases they can decide themselves. That will make your load lighter, because they will share(F) it with you.
