Exodus 23:1-9 (AMP) 1 YOU SHALL not repeat or raise a false report; you shall not join with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. 2 You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; nor shall you bear witness at a trial so as to side with a multitude to pervert justice. 3 Neither shall you be partial to a poor man in his trial [just because he is poor]. 4 If you meet your enemys ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again. 5 If you see the donkey of one who hates you lying [helpless] under his load, you shall refrain from leaving the man to cope with it alone; you shall help him to release the animal. 6 You shall not pervert the justice due to your poor in his cause. 7 Keep far from a false matter and [be very careful] not to condemn to death the innocent and the righteous, for I will not justify and acquit the wicked. 8 You shall take no bribe, for the bribe blinds those who have sight and perverts the testimony and the cause of the righteous. 9 Also you shall not oppress a temporary resident, for you know the heart of a stranger and sojourner, seeing you were strangers and sojourners in Egypt.
