Deuteronomy 1:11-13

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹¹ May the Lord, the God of your fathers, add to you a thousand times as many as you are now, and may he bless you, just as he promised you. ¹² But how can I manage by myself to carry the burden that you have become and the load that you are—especially your disputes? ¹³ Provide for yourselves, tribe by tribe, men who are wise and perceptive and with known ability, and I will appoint them as your leaders.”
