出埃及記 18:21

並要從百姓中揀選有才能的人，就是敬畏上帝、誠實無妄、恨不義之財的人，派他們作千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長，管理百姓，

bìng yào cóng bǎi xìng zhōng jiǎn xuǎn yǒu cái néng de rén ， jiù shì jìng wèi shén 、 chéng shí wú wàng 、 hèn bú yì zhī cái de rén ， pài tā men zuò qiān fū cháng 、 bǎi fū zhǎng 、 wǔ shí fū cháng 、 shí fū cháng ， guǎn lǐ bǎi xìng ，

Moreover you shall provide out of all the people able men which 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.
