2 Chronicles 19:5-10

5 He appointed a judges in the land in all b the fortified cities of Judah, city by city, 6 and said to the judges, “Consider what you do, c for you judge not for man but for the  Lord. He is with you in giving judgment. 7 Now then, let the fear of the  Lord be upon you. Be careful what you do, for d there is no injustice with the  Lord our God e or partiality or taking bribes.”

8 Moreover, in Jerusalem Jehoshaphat f appointed certain Levites and priests and heads of families of Israel g to give judgment for the  Lord and to decide disputed cases. They had their seat at Jerusalem. 9 And he charged them: h “Thus you shall do in the fear of the  Lord, in faithfulness, i and with your whole heart: 10  j whenever a case comes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, concerning bloodshed, law or commandment, statutes or rules, then you shall warn them, that they may not incur guilt before the  Lord and k wrath may not come upon you and your brothers. Thus you shall do, and you will not incur guilt.
