Deuteronomy 16:18-20
Modern English Version
Judges
18 You must appoint judges and officers in all your gates, which the Lord your God gives you, throughout your tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment. 19 You must not pervert judgment nor show partiality. You must not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. 20 You must follow that which is altogether just, so that you may live and inherit the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
