13And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, that MosesH4872 satH3427 to judgeH8199 the peopleH5971: and the peopleH5971 stoodH5975 by MosesH4872 from the morningH1242 unto the eveningH6153. 14And when Moses’H4872 father in lawH2859 sawH7200 all that he didH6213 to the peopleH5971, he saidH559, What is this thingH1697 that thou doestH6213 to the peopleH5971? why sittestH3427 thou thyself alone, and all the peopleH5971 standH5324 by thee from morningH1242 unto evenH6153? 15And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto his father in lawH2859, Because the peopleH5971 comeH935 unto me to enquireH1875 of GodH430: 16When they have a matterH1697, they comeH935 unto me; and I judgeH8199 between oneH376 and anotherH7453, and I do make them knowH3045 the statutesH2706 of GodH430, and his lawsH8451.1
