9“I spokeH559 to you at that timeH6256, sayingH559, ‘1I am not ableH3201 to bearH5375 the burden of you aloneH905. 10The LordH3068 your GodH430 has 2multipliedH7235 you, and beholdH2009, you are this dayH3117 like the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 in numberH7230. 11May the LordH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, increaseH3254 you a thousand-foldH505H6471 moreH3254 than you are and blessH1288 you, 3justH3512 as He has 4promisedH1696 you! 12HowH351 can I aloneH905 bearH5375 the loadH2960 and burdenH4853 of you and your strifeH7379? 1356ChooseH3051 wiseH2450 and discerningH995 and experiencedH3045 menH376 from your tribesH7626, and I will appointH7760 them as your headsH7218.’ 14You answeredH6030 me and saidH559, ‘The thingH1697 whichH834 you have saidH1696 to doH6213 is goodH2896.’ 15So I tookH3947 the headsH7218 of your tribesH7626, wiseH2450 and experiencedH3045 menH376, and 7appointedH5414 them headsH7218 overH5921 you, leadersH8269 of thousandsH505 and 8of hundredsH3967, 9of fiftiesH2572 and 10of tensH6235, and officersH7860 for your tribesH7626.
