Deuteronomy 1:11

⁹  And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

¹⁰  The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

¹¹  (The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

¹²  How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

¹³  Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.
