Deuteronomy 16:19

Back to Verses

Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

Do not be unfair; treat everyone equally, and don't accept bribes. Bribes can make wise people blind and twist the truth.
