- "[[To the chief Musician,ª° Altaschith,ª° Michtamª of David.]]ª Do ye indeedª speakª° righteousness,ª O congregation?ª do ye judgeª° uprightly,ª O ye sonsª of men?ª ... Yea,¹ in heartª ye workª° wickedness;ª ye weighª° the violenceª of your handsª in the earth.ª" {Psa 58:1-2} + "Thou shalt not¹ wrestª° the judgmentª of thy poorª in his cause.ª ... 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" {Exd 23:6-7} + "Ye shall doª° no¹ unrighteousnessª in judgment:ª thou shalt not¹ respectª° the personª of the poor,ª nor¹ honourª° the personª of the mighty:ª [but] in righteousnessª shalt thou judgeª° thy neighbour.ª" {Lev 19:15} + "And I said,ª° Hear,ª° I pray you,¹ O headsª of Jacob,ª and ye princesª of the houseª of Israel;ª [Is it] not¹ for you to knowª°¹ judgment?ª ... Who¹ also eatª° the fleshª of my people,ª and flayª° their skinª from off¹¹ them; and they breakª° their bones,ª and chop them in pieces,ª° as¹ for the pot,ª and as fleshª withinª the caldron.ª" {Mic 3:1-3} + "Hearª° this,¹ I pray you,¹ ye headsª of the houseª of Jacob,ª and princesª of the houseª of Israel,ª that abhorª° judgment,ª and pervertª° all¹ equity.ª ... Therefore¹ shall Zionª for your sakeª be plowedª° [as] a field,ª and Jerusalemª shall become¹ heaps,ª and the mountainª of the houseª as the high placesª of the forest.ª" {Mic 3:9-12}
