New King James Version
6 and said to the judges, “Take heed to what you are doing, for (A)you do not judge for man but for the Lord, (B)who is with you [a]in the judgment. 7 Now therefore, let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take care and do it, for (C)there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, no (D)partiality, nor taking of bribes.”
8 Moreover in Jerusalem, for the judgment of the Lord and for controversies, Jehoshaphat (E)appointed some of the Levites and priests, and some of the chief fathers of Israel, [b]when they returned to Jerusalem.
