'Verdict' in the Bible

Present the case to the Levitical priest or the judge at that time. When you have inquired and they have announced the verdict,

carry out the verdict that was declared to you at the place that the LORD will choose. Carefully observe all of their instructions to you

in accordance with what the Law says, and in accordance with the verdict that will be handed to you. You must not deviate from the verdict that they declare to you either to the right or to the left.

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.

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.

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.

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.
