Exodus 18:12-15 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

12. Then Moses' father-in-law Jethro brought a burnt offering and other sacrifices to God. Aaron came with all of the elders of Israel. They ate with Moses' father-in-law in the sight of God.

13. The next day Moses took his seat to serve the people as their judge. They stood around him from morning until evening.

14. His father-in-law saw everything Moses was doing for the people. So he said, "Aren't you trying to do too much for the people? You are the only judge. And all of these people are standing around you from morning until evening."

15. Moses answered him. He said, "The people come to me to find out what God wants them to do.
