Exodus 23:1-9 - Regulations Regarding Justice
1 Do not spread false rumors. Do not help a guilty person by offering false testimony.
2 Do not follow the majority to do wrong. Do not give testimony that perverts justice. 3 Do not show partiality to a poor man at his trial.
4 If you see your enemy's cow or donkey running loose, take it back to him.
5 If your enemy's donkey falls under its load, help him get the donkey to its feet again. Do not just walk away.
6 Do not deny justice to a poor person at his trial. 7 Do not make false accusations. Do not put an innocent person to death. I will condemn anyone who does this evil thing. 8 Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe makes the discerning blind to what is right and perverts the words of the righteous. 9 Do not mistreat a foreigner. You know how it feels to be a foreigner. After all you were foreigners in Egypt.
