18 “You should set judges+ and officers+ for yourself inside all your gates that Jehovah your God is giving you by your tribes, and they must judge the people with righteous judgment.

8 And in Jerusalem also Je·hoshʹa·phat stationed some of the Levites+ and the priests+ and some of the heads of the paternal+ houses of Israel for the judgment+ of Jehovah and for the legal cases+ of the inhabitants of Jerusalem.*
