其中有二萬四千人監管永恆主之殿的工；有六千人做職員和司法人員；

摩西從全以色列眾人中揀選了有才德的人，讓他們做人民的首領，做千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長。他們隨時審判人民；有困難的案件，就呈到摩西那裏；所有小案件、他們自己去判斷。

那麼、彼此爭訟的這兩個人就要站在永恆主面前、在當日做祭司做審判官者面前。審判官要仔細查究；如果那見證人是個假的見證人作假見證控訴他的族弟兄，

以斯哈族人有基拿尼雅和他兒子們做官吏和司法人員來管理以色列聖殿以外之事。

若有人擅自行事，不聽從祭司、那站在那裏事奉永恆主你的上帝的、或是不聽從審判官，那人就必須死；你要把那壞事從以色列中肅清。

那麼、你的長老和審判官就要出去，量那被刺死的人四圍的城市離那人多遠。

去見祭司利未人和當日做審判官的、去查問，他們便會將判斷的話向你宣告。

我便將你們眾族派的領袖、有智慧有見識的人、照你們的族派、立他們為首領、做千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長、和官吏、來管理你們。那時我吩咐你們的審判官說：「你們在同族弟兄中聽訟，無論是人跟同族弟兄有爭訟，還是人跟同住的外僑有爭訟，你們都要按着公義而判斷。審判的時候、不可看人的外貌；聽訟無論是聽卑小的，還是聽尊大的、都要一樣；不可怕人的情面，因為審判是屬於上帝的；你們認為難辦的案件、可以呈到我這裏來，我就判斷。」

居上位有政權的、人人都當順服。因為沒有政權不是出於上帝的：一切政權都由上帝所定。故此敵擋政權、就是反對上帝所規定；反對的必自招處刑。作官的原不是叫有善行的懼怕，乃是叫有惡行的懼怕。你願意不懼怕政權麼？須要行善，就可以從它得讚許；因為它是為你的好處而做上帝僕役的。但你若行惡，就該懼怕；因為它並不是徒然佩帶刀劍權力；它是上帝的僕役，是刑罰者，使上帝之義怒臨到作惡之人的。所以必須順服，不但因上帝義怒之緣故，也因良知的緣故。你們納貢銀、也是為了這個緣故，因為他們是上帝的差役，時常專務的正是這事。

那麼他主人就要帶他到官長那裏，又帶他到門前，或是門柱旁；他主人要用錐子穿他的耳朵，他就得永遠服事主人。

他又在猶大地一切的堡壘城、一城一城設立審判官，對審判官說：『你們所作的、你們要看清楚；因為你們判斷、不是為了人，乃是為了永恆主；你們說判斷話時候、永恆主是和你們同在的。現在你們對永恆主要有畏懼的心；你們要謹慎辦事；因為永恆主我們的上帝無不公道；他不以貌取人，也不受賄賂。』約沙法也在耶路撒冷從利未人和祭司跟以色列人父系族長中設立了人為永恆主施行判斷，解決爭訟；他們駐在耶路撒冷。約沙法吩咐他們說：『你們要有敬畏永恆主的意念、忠實可靠、有純全的心去辦事。你們的族弟兄住在各城，凡有爭訟的事來到你們面前，或是為了兩方面的流血、或是在律法與誡命、律例、典章之間有爭執，你們總要開導他們，免得他們得罪永恆主，以致他的震怒臨到了你們和你們的族弟兄；你們這樣行、就不至於有罪責了。看哪，凡屬永恆主的事、有祭司長亞瑪利雅管理你們；凡屬王的事、有猶大家首領以實瑪利的兒子西巴第雅管理你們；在你們面前則有利未人做官吏。你們要剛強辦事；願永恆主和善人同在。』

『你們不按公義而審判，只徇惡人的情面，要到幾時呢？（細拉）你們要為受欺壓的人和孤兒伸冤；要向困苦窮乏人顯義氣。
