He will delight in obeying the Lord. He will not judge by appearance nor make a decision based on hearsay.He will give justice to the poor and make fair decisions for the exploited. The earth will shake at the force of his word, and one breath from his mouth will destroy the wicked.

“ Do not twist justice in legal matters by favoring the poor or being partial to the rich and powerful. Always judge people fairly.

Justice— do you rulers know the meaning of the word? Do you judge the people fairly?No! You plot injustice in your hearts. You spread violence throughout the land.

“ Appoint judges and officials for yourselves from each of your tribes in all the towns the Lord your God is giving you. They must judge the people fairly.You must never twist justice or show partiality. Never accept a bribe, for bribes blind the eyes of the wise and corrupt the decisions of the godly.

doesn’t this discrimination show that your judgments are guided by evil motives?

“ At that time I instructed the judges,‘ You must hear the cases of your fellow Israelites and the foreigners living among you. Be perfectly fair in your decisionsand impartial in your judgments. Hear the cases of those who are poor as well as those who are rich. Don’t be afraid of anyone’s anger, for the decision you make is God’s decision. Bring me any cases that are too difficult for you, and I will handle them.’

You judge me by human standards, but I do not judge anyone.

“ How long will you hand down unjust decisions by favoring the wicked? Interlude

But if you favor some people over others, you are committing a sin. You are guilty of breaking the law.

They take bribes to let the wicked go free, and they punish the innocent.

Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent— both are detestable to the Lord.

Here are some further sayings of the wise: It is wrong to show favoritism when passing judgment.
