Num. 11:14-17 records how some of the spirit/power delegated to Moses was taken from him and given to the elders of Israel, for the purpose of enabling them to correctly judge the people's grievances so that there was less pressure on Moses. Just before Moses' death, the spirit gift was transferred from him to Joshua so that he, too, could properly lead God's people (Deut. 34:9).
Kitabu cha Hesabu 11:14 -17 kinatupatia habari ya jinsi baadhi ya Roho /nguvu aliyopewa Musa ilichukuliwa toka kwake wakapewa wazee wa Israeli, kwa kusudi la kuwawezesha kuamua kwa usahihi manung’uniko ya watu na kumpunguzia mzigo Musa. Kabla ya kifo chake, kipawa cha Roho kiliamishwa kutoka kwake akapewa Yoshua ili kwamba, naye vile vile, aweze kuwaongoza watu wa Mungu kwa Uzuri (Kut. 34:9)
