So Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one as discerning and wise as you are.

Now listen to me; I will give you some advice, and God be with you. You be the one to represent the people before God and bring their cases to him.Instruct them about the statutes and laws, and teach them the way to live and what they must do.But you should select from all the people able men, God-fearing, trustworthy, and hating dishonest profit. Place them over the people as commanders of thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens.They should judge the people at all times. Then they can bring you every major case but judge every minor case themselves. In this way you will lighten your load, and they will bear it with you.

Therefore, may my advice seem good to you my king. Separate yourself from your sins by doing what is right, and from your injustices by showing mercy to the needy. Perhaps there will be an extension of your prosperity.”

Brothers and sisters, select from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Spirit and wisdom, whom we can appoint to this duty.

Appoint for yourselves wise, understanding, and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will make them your leaders.
