18JudgesH8199 and officersH7860 shalt thou makeH5414 thee in all thy gatesH8179, which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, throughout thy tribesH7626: and they shall judgeH8199 the peopleH5971 with justH6664 judgmentH4941. 19Thou shalt not wrestH5186 judgmentH4941; thou shalt not respectH5234 personsH6440, neither takeH3947 a giftH7810: for a giftH7810 doth blindH5786 the eyesH5869 of the wiseH2450, and pervertH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662.1 20That which is altogetherH6664 justH6664 shalt thou followH7291, that thou mayest liveH2421, and inheritH3423 the landH776 which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee.2
