'Judges' in the Bible
And at that time I gave orders to your judges, saying, Let all questions between your brothers come before you for hearing, and give decisions uprightly between a man and his brother or one from another nation who is with him.
You are to make judges and overseers in all your towns which the Lord your God gives you, for every tribe: and they are to be upright men, judging the people in righteousness.
Then the two men, between whom the argument has taken place, are to come before the Lord, before the priests and judges who are then in power;
And the judges will have the question looked into with care: and if the witness is seen to be false and to have made a false statement against his brother,
Then your responsible men and your judges are to come out, and give orders for the distance from the dead body to the towns round about it to be measured;
If there is an argument between men and they go to law with one another, let the judges give their decision for the upright, and against the wrongdoer.
For their rock is not like our Rock, even our haters themselves being judges.
