'Causes' in the Bible

Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:

And let them be judges in the causes of the people at all times: and let them put before you all important questions, but in small things let them give decisions themselves: in this way, it will be less hard for you, and they will take the weight off you.

And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.

And if he causes the tooth of his male slave or the tooth of his female slave to fall out, he will release him as free in place of his tooth.

“If a man causes a field or vineyard to be grazed bare or lets his livestock loose so that it grazes in another man’s field, he shall make restitution from the best of his own field and the best of his own vineyard.
