Deuteronomy 17:8

Back to Verses

If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;

If a difficult issue arises that you cannot decide, involving bloodshed, disputes, or conflicts in your town, you must go to the place the Lord has chosen.
