How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
to the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:
Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
(The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)
Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.
