然后，以色列各支派的首领，就是负责人口统计的各族长，都来奉献。

你们要从各支派中选出有智慧、有见识、受尊重的人，我要立他们做你们的首领。’你们都同意这样的做法。于是，我把各支派中有智慧和受敬重的人立为你们的首领，即千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长和其他官长，治理你们。我吩咐这些官员要聆听案件，公正地审理同胞之间或与外族人之间的诉讼，不可偏私，不分贵贱，不惧情面，因为判决来自上帝。如果案件太难，可以交给我处理。

每一支派要有一个人来协助你们。他们都是各宗族的族长，名单如下。“吕便支派示丢珥的儿子以利苏、西缅支派苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑、犹大支派亚米拿达的儿子拿顺、以萨迦支派苏押的儿子拿坦业、西布伦支派希伦的儿子以利押、约瑟的后裔——以法莲支派亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛和玛拿西支派比大苏的儿子迦玛列、便雅悯支派基多尼的儿子亚比但、但支派亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢、亚设支派俄兰的儿子帕结、迦得支派丢珥的儿子以利雅萨、拿弗他利支派以南的儿子亚希拉。”他们都是从会众中选出来的，是各支派的首领，也是以色列的将领。

“负责给你们分地的是以利亚撒祭司和嫩的儿子约书亚。每支派要选出一位首领来协助分地。“以下是这些首领的名字：犹大支派耶孚尼的儿子迦勒，西缅支派亚米忽的儿子示姆利，便雅悯支派基斯伦的儿子以利达，但支派约利的儿子布基，约瑟之子玛拿西支派以弗的儿子汉聂，以法莲支派拾弗但的儿子基姆利，西布伦支派帕纳的儿子以利撒番，以萨迦支派阿散的儿子帕铁，亚设支派示罗米的儿子亚希忽，拿弗他利支派亚米忽的儿子比达黑。”
