Deuteronomy 16:19-21

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁹ Judges must do what is right for every person, rich or poor. They must not accept any bribes. A bribe may hide the truth even from a wise man. It can make honest people tell lies. ²⁰ Make sure that there is justice for everyone in the land that the Lord your God is giving to you. Then the land will belong to you and you will enjoy life in it.

Do not worship other gods

²¹ When you build an altar to offer sacrifices to the Lord your God, do not put any Asherah pole there.
