Exodus 18:21-22
21Furthermore, you shall 1select out of all the people 2able men 3who fear God, men of truth, those who 4hate dishonest gain; and you shall place these over them as leaders of thousands, 5of hundreds, 6of fifties and 7of tens.
22Let them judge the people at all times; and let it be 8that every major 9dispute they will bring to you, but every minor 10dispute they themselves will judge. So it will be easier for you, and 11they will bear the burden with you.
