22Let them judgeH8199 the peopleH5971 at allH3605 timesH6256; and let it be 1that they will bringH935 to you everyH3605 majorH1419 matterH1697, but they will judgeH8199 everyH3605 minorH6996 matterH1697 themselves. So it will beH7043 easierH7043 for you, and 2they will carryH5375 the burden with you. 23IfH518 you doH6213 thisH2088 thingH1697 and GodH430 so commandsH6680 you, then you will beH3201 ableH3201 to 3endureH5975, and allH3605 4theseH2088 peopleH5971 alsoH1571 will goH935 to 5their placesH4725 in peaceH7965.”
