Exodus 18:24-27

24So Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said. 25 aMoses chose able men out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. 26And bthey judged the people at all times. Any hard case they brought to Moses, but any small matter they decided themselves. 27Then Moses let his father-in-law depart, and che went away to his own country.
