'Verdict' in the Bible

If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, certainly now you would have sent me off empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and my hard work, and He issued His verdict last night.”

You are to go to the Levitical priests and to the judge who presides at that time. Ask, and they will give you a verdict in the case.

You must abide by the verdict they give you at the place the Lord chooses. Be careful to do exactly as they instruct you.

You must abide by the instruction they give you and the verdict they announce to you. Do not turn to the right or the left from the decision they declare to you.

The person who pays no attention to the priest currently serving the Lord your God there, or to the verdict -- that person must die, so that you may purge evil from Israel.

Then the Levitical priests will approach (for the Lord your God has chosen them to serve him and to pronounce blessings in his name, and to decide every judicial verdict)

Look, all of you are Israelites. Give your judgment and verdict here and now.”

But while your servant was busy here and there, he [escaped and] was gone.” And the king of Israel said to him, “Such is your own judgment (verdict); you have determined it.”

“But You [Lord] have closed their hearts to understanding,Therefore You will not exalt them [by giving a verdict against me].

Will he acquit you just because you fear him, and render a verdict on your behalf?

May you punish them for their crimes; may they receive no verdict of innocence from you.

God’s verdict is on the lips of a king;his mouth should not give an unfair judgment.

Then the officials and all the people rendered their verdict to the priests and the prophets. They said, "This man should not be condemned to die. For he has spoken to us under the authority of the Lord our God."

But if you refuse to surrender, this is the verdict that the Lord has shown me:

for if you [do] not make the dream known to me, {your verdict is fixed}, and you have conspired to say lying and deceitful word to me until the {circumstances} will change. Therefore, tell me the dream, and I will know that you can tell me its explanation."

This order is announced by the observers, and the holy ones declare the verdict, so that the living may know that the Most High is sovereign over human kingdoms and grants them to whomever he desires, and he places the least important of men over them.'

Therefore I cut them to pieces by the prophets, killing them by the words from my mouth. The verdict against you shines like a beacon.

These are the things which you should do: speak the truth with one another; judge with truth and pronounce the judgment that brings peace in [the courts at] your gates.

What is your verdict?" They replied, "He deserves to die!"

"You have heard his blasphemy! What is your verdict?" All of them condemned him as deserving death.

And we know that the judgment of God falls justly and in accordance with truth on those who practice such things.

But do you think this, O man, when you judge and condemn those who practice such things, and yet do the same yourself, that you will escape God’s judgment and elude His verdict?

For anyone who eats and drinks [without solemn reverence and heartfelt gratitude for the sacrifice of Christ], eats and drinks a judgment on himself if he does not recognize the body [of Christ].

This is a positive proof of the righteous judgment of God [a sign of His fair verdict], so that you will be considered worthy of His kingdom, for which indeed you are suffering.

In their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. The ancient verdict against them is still in force, and their destruction is not delayed.
