Deuteronomy 16:18-20

18Each tribe must choose judges and officers in every town that the Lord gives you. They must judge the people in a way that is fair.

19Judges must do what is right for every person, rich or poor. They must not accept any bribes. A bribe may hide the truth even from a wise man. It can make honest people tell lies.

20Make sure that there is justice for everyone in the land that the Lord your God is giving to you. Then the land will belong to you and you will enjoy life in it.
