New Testament

Deuteronomy 16:19-22 English Standard Version (ESV)

19. You shall not pervert justice. You shall not show partiality, and you shall not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and subverts the cause of the righteous.

20. Justice, and only justice, you shall follow, that you may live and inherit the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

21. “You shall not plant any tree as an Asherah beside the altar of the Lord your God that you shall make.

22. And you shall not set up a pillar, which the Lord your God hates.
