but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord: being ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with meekness and fear:

Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating unjust gain; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:and let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge themselves: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people also shall go to their place in peace.So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father- in- law, and did all that he had said.And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

But thou, Beth- lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting.

But Peter began, and expounded the matter unto them in order, saying,

He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him.

Ye know this, my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

The plans of the heart belong to man; But the answer of the tongue is from Jehovah.

He kisseth the lips Who giveth a right answer.

A soft answer turneth away wrath; But a grievous word stirreth up anger.
