Exodus 18:12-14

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹² Then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, brought a burnt offering and other sacrifices to God. Aaron and all the leaders of Israel came to eat the meal with Moses’ father-in-law in God’s presence.

¹³ The next day Moses was settling disagreements among the people. The people stood around Moses from morning until evening. ¹⁴ When Moses’ father-in-law saw everything Moses was doing for the people, he asked, “Why are you doing this for the people? Why do you sit here alone, while all the people stand around you from morning until evening?”
