17 YOU must not be partial* in judgment.+ YOU should hear the little one the same as the great one.+ YOU must not become frightened because of a man,+ for the judgment belongs to God;+ and the case that is too hard for YOU, YOU should present to me, and I must hear it.’+

23 With that King Solʹo·mon swore by Jehovah, saying: “So may God do to me, and so may he add to it,+ if it was not against his own soul that Ad·o·niʹjah spoke this thing.+

6 Righteousness itself safeguards the one who is harmless in his way,+ but wickedness is what subverts the sinner.*+

12 The Righteous One is giving consideration to the house* of the wicked one,+ subverting the wicked ones to [their] calamity.+
