Deuteronomy 1:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 At that time I said to you, “I cannot carry the burden for you alone.

10 The LORD your God has multiplied you, so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky.

11 May the LORD, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand times over and bless you as He has promised.

12 But how can I bear your troubles, burdens, and disputes all by myself?

13 Choose for yourselves wise, understanding, and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will appoint them as your leaders.”
