Deuteronomy 16:18 in Context — Deuteronomy 16
16 Tres veces cada un año parecerá todo varón tuyo delante de Jehová tu Dios en el lugar que él escogiere: en la solemnidad de los ázimos, y en la solemnidad de las semanas, y en la solemnidad de las cabañas. Y no parecerá vacío delante de Jehová:
17 Cada uno con el don de su mano, conforme á la bendición de Jehová tu Dios, que te hubiere dado.
18 Jueces y alcaldes te pondrás en todas tus ciudades que Jehová tu Dios te dará en tus tribus, los cuales juzgarán al pueblo con justo juicio.
19 No tuerzas el derecho; no hagas acepción de personas, ni tomes soborno; porque el soborno ciega los ojos de los sabios, y pervierte las palabras de los justos.
20 La justicia, la justicia seguirás, porque vivas y heredes la tierra que Jehová tu Dios te da.
