Deuteronomy 1:16-17

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶ I commanded your judges at that time: Hear the cases between your brothers, and judge rightly between a man and his brother or a foreign resident. ¹⁷ Do not show partiality when deciding a case;^(A) listen to small and great alike. Do not be intimidated by anyone, for judgment belongs to God.^(B) Bring me any case too difficult for you, and I will hear it.
