NIV “do not pervert justice.”} you must neither show partiality to the poor nor honor the rich. ^{▼▼ Heb “You shall not lift up faces of poor [people] and you shall not honor faces of great.”} You must judge your fellow citizen fairly. ^{▼▼ Heb “In righteousness you shall judge your fellow citizen.”}
