¹¹ I pray that the Lord, the God of your ·ancestors [fathers], will give you a thousand times more people and ·do all the wonderful things [^Lbless you as] he promised. ¹² ·But I cannot take care of [^LHow can I lift up/bear…?] your problems, your troubles, and your arguments by myself. ¹³ So choose some men from each tribe—wise men who have ·understanding [discernment] and experience—and I will make them leaders over you.”
