Exodus 18:19 In-Context

17 Moses' father-in-law replied, "What you are doing isn't good.
18 You will just get worn out. And so will these people who come to you. There's too much work for you. You can't possibly handle it by yourself.
19 "Listen to me. I'll give you some advice, and may God be with you. You must speak to God for the people. Take their problems to him.
20 Teach them the rules and laws. Show them how to live and what to do.
21 "But choose men of ability from all of the people. They must have respect for God. You must be able to trust them. They must not try to get money by cheating others. Appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.
