"For¹ the LORDª your Godª [is] Godª of gods,ª and Lordª of lords,ª a greatª God,ª a mighty,ª and a terrible,ª° which¹ regardethª° not¹ persons,ª nor¹ takethª° reward:ª" {Deu 10:17} + "Thou shalt not¹ wrestª° judgment;ª thou shalt not¹ respectª° persons,ª neither¹ takeª° a gift:ª for¹ a giftª doth blindª° the eyesª of the wise,ª and pervertª° the wordsª of the righteous.ª" {Deu 16:19} + "Keep thee farª° from a false² matter;ª¹¹ and the innocentª and righteousª slayª° thou not:¹ for¹ I will not¹ justifyª° the wicked.ª ...

Behold,¹ therefore I have smittenª° mine handª at¹ thy dishonest gainª which¹ thou hast made,ª° and at¹ thy bloodª which¹ hath been¹ in the midstª of thee." {Ezk 22:12-13} + "They build upª° Zionª with blood,ª and Jerusalemª with iniquity.ª ... The headsª thereof judgeª° for reward,ª and the priestsª thereof teachª° for hire,ª and the prophetsª thereof divineª° for money:ª yet will they leanª° upon¹ the LORD,ª and say,ª° [Is] not¹ the LORDª amongª us? none¹ evilª can comeª° upon¹ us." {Mic 3:10-11} + "The goodª [man] is perishedª° out of¹ the earth:ª and [there is] none¹ uprightª among men:ª they all¹ lie in waitª° for blood;ª they huntª° every manª¹ his brotherª with a net.ª ...
