2 Chronicles 19:5-11 He appointed judges in the country, in each fortified city of Judah.

VIN⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ He appointed judges in the country, in each fortified city of Judah. ⁶ And he said to the judges, Take heed what you do. For you do not judge for man, but for the LORD, who is with you in the judgment. ⁷ So let the fear of the LORD rest upon you, be on your guard, and act carefully, because with the LORD our God there is neither injustice, nor partiality, nor bribery." ⁸ In Jerusalem also Josaphat appointed some of the priests and Levites and patriarchs of Israel, for the judgment of the Lord, and to judge the inhabitants of Jerusalem. ⁹ He told them: »Faithfully serve the LORD! ¹⁰ And whatever cause shall come to you from your brothers that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, you shall even warn them so that they do not sin against the LORD, and wrath come on you and your brothers. Do this and you shall not sin. ¹¹ Look, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, in all the king's matters: also the Levites shall be officers before you. Deal courageously, and may the LORD be with the good."
