'Judge' in the Bible

[The judge tells the creditor], “Take the clothes of one who is surety for a stranger;And hold him in pledge [when he guarantees a loan] for foreigners.”

By patience and a calm spirit a ruler may be persuaded,And a soft and gentle tongue breaks the bone [of resistance].

[The judge tells the creditor,] “Take the garment of one who is surety (guarantees a loan) for a stranger;And hold him in pledge when he is surety for an immoral woman [for it is unlikely the debt will be repaid].”

Open your mouth, judge righteously,And administer justice for the afflicted and needy.
