Deuteronomy 1:16 in Context — Deuteronomy 1

14 E me respondestes, e dissestes: Bom é fazer o que disseste.

15 E tomei os principais de vossas tribos, homens sábios e experientes, e os pus por chefes sobre vós, chefes de milhares, e chefes de centenas, e chefes de cinquenta, e líderes de dez, e governadores a vossas tribos.

16 E então mandei a vossos juízes, dizendo: Ouvi entre vossos irmãos, e julgai justamente entre o homem e seu irmão, e o que lhe é estrangeiro.

17 Não tenhais acepção de pessoas no juízo: tanto ao pequeno como ao grande ouvireis: não tereis temor de ninguém, porque o juízo é de Deus: e a causa que vos for difícil, a trareis a mim, e eu a ouvirei.

18 Eu vos mandei, pois, naquele tempo tudo o que havíeis de fazer.
