behold I fear there would rise contentions among you.

And who knoweth but what my son, to whom the kingdom doth belong,

which would be the cause of shedding much blood

and perverting the way of the Lord,

yea, and destroy the souls of many people.

he would recall the things which he had said,

yea, and what great destruction!

ye shall cause that a small number of your lower judges

should be gathered together,

and they shall judge your higher judges,

according to the voice of the people.
