Deuteronomy 17:8-11

8There may be a case that is too hard for you to decide. It may involve murder, assault, or a dispute—any case which may be brought to court in your cities. Take this case to the place that the Lord your God will choose.

9Go to the Levitical priests and the judge who is serving at that time. Ask for their opinion, and they will give you their verdict

10at the place that the Lord will choose. Do what they tell you. Follow all their instructions carefully,

11and do what they tell you to do in their verdict. Do exactly what they tell you to do in their decision.
