Exodus 18:9-15

9And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness that Jehovah had done to Israel; that he had delivered them out of the hand of the Egyptians.

10And Jethro said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh; who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.

11Now I know that Jehovah is greater than all 1gods; for in the thing in which they acted haughtily [he was] above them.

12And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took a burnt-offering and sacrifices for 2God; and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father-in-law in the presence of 3God.

13And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people; and the people stood by Moses from the morning to the evening.

14And Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did with the people, and said, What is this thing which thou art doing with the people? why dost thou sit alone, and all the people are standing by thee from morning to evening?

15And Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to enquire of 4God.
