Deuteronomy 16:18

Appointing Judges And Officials

¹⁷ each according to the gift of his hand, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God, which He hath given to thee. ¹⁸ Judges and authorities thou dost make to thee within all thy gates which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, for thy tribes; and they have judged the people -- a righteous judgment. ¹⁹ Thou dost not turn aside judgment; thou dost not discern faces, nor take a bribe, for the bribe blindeth the eyes of the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
