2 Samuel 22:24
24I was ablameless before him,and I kept myself from guilt.
Nehemiah 5:15
15The former governors who were before me laid heavy burdens on the people and took from them for their daily ration ▼▼Compare Vulgate; Hebrew took from them with food and wine afterward
forty shekels ▼▼A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams
of silver. Even their servants lorded it over the people. But I did not do so, dbecause of the fear of God. Isaiah 33:15
15 eHe who walks righteously and speaks uprightly,who despises the gain of oppressions,
who shakes his hands, lest they hold a bribe,
who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed
fand shuts his eyes from looking on evil,
