Exodus 23:1-7 Thou shalt not countenance an idle report, nor conspire with the unrighteous to be a false witness.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thou shalt not countenance an idle report, nor conspire with the unrighteous to be a false witness. ² Thou shalt not be with the majority in wickedness, nor join with the multitude to shut out justice. ³ In passing judgment thou shalt not be influenced by compassion for the needy. ⁴ If thou meet the ox of thy enemy or his ass going astray thou shalt turn it back and restore it to him. ⁵ And if thou seest thine enemy's ass fallen under his burden thou shalt not pass it by, but shalt raise it up with its load. ⁶ Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of a poor man in the trial of his cause. ⁷ Thou shalt keep aloof from every thing unjust. An innocent and a righteous man thou shalt not slay; nor shalt thou justify a wicked man for the sake of bribes.
