Exodus 23:3-8 Good News Bible (GNB)

3. Do not show partiality to a poor person at his trial.

4. “If you happen to see your enemy's cow or donkey running loose, take it back to him.

5. If his donkey has fallen under its load, help him get the donkey to its feet again; don't just walk off.

6. “Do not deny justice to a poor person when he appears in court.

7. Do not make false accusations, and do not put an innocent person to death, for I will condemn anyone who does such an evil thing.

8. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe makes people blind to what is right and ruins the cause of those who are innocent.
