12. And Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took burnt offerings and sacrifices for God; and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law before God.
13. And it came to pass another day that Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood before Moses from the morning unto the evening.
14. And when Moses’ father-in-law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this that thou doest to the people? Why sittest thou thyself alone and all the people stand before thee from morning unto evening?
15. And Moses said unto his father-in-law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God.
16. When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I declare unto them the statutes of God and his laws.
17. Then Moses’ father-in-law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
