ELB

NIV

22 daß sie das Volk richten zu aller Zeit; und es geschehe, daß sie jede große Sache vor dich bringen und daß sie jede kleine Sache selbst richten; so erleichtere es dir, und sie mögen mit dir tragen.
22 Have them serve as judges for the people at all times, but have them bring every difficult case to you; the simple cases they can decide themselves. That will make your load lighter, because they will share it with you.
