“ Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd,

“ Do not follow the crowd when they do what is wrong. When you are a witness in court, do not turn what is right into what is wrong. Do not go along with the crowd.

You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice,

Then the whole community broke into loud cries, and the people wept that night.All the Israelites complained about Moses and Aaron, and the whole community told them,“ If only we had died in the land of Egypt, or if only we had died in this wilderness!Why is the Lord bringing us into this land to die by the sword? Our wives and little children will become plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?”So they said to one another,“ Let’s appoint a leader and go back to Egypt.”Then Moses and Aaron fell down with their faces to the ground in front of the whole assembly of the Israelite community.Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, who were among those who scouted out the land, tore their clothesand said to the entire Israelite community:“ The land we passed through and explored is an extremely good land.If the Lord is pleased with us, He will bring us into this land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and give it to us.Only don’t rebel against the Lord, and don’t be afraid of the people of the land, for we will devour them. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us. Don’t be afraid of them!”While the whole community threatened to stone them, the glory of the Lord appeared to all the Israelites at the tent of meeting.

Then, willing to gratify the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. And after having Jesus flogged, he handed Him over to be crucified.

my son, don’t travel that road with them or set foot on their path,

“ You must not act unjustly when deciding a case. Do not be partial to the poor or give preference to the rich; judge your neighbor fairly.

Do not show partiality when deciding a case; listen to small and great alike. Do not be intimidated by anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too difficult for you, and I will hear it.

When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that a riot was starting instead, he took some water, washed his hands in front of the crowd, and said,“ I am innocent of this man’s blood. See to it yourselves!”All the people answered,“ His blood be on us and on our children!”Then he released Barabbas to them. But after having Jesus flogged, he handed Him over to be crucified.

He replied,“ I have been very zealous for the Lord God of Hosts, but the Israelites have abandoned Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left, and they are looking for me to take my life.”

But they kept up the pressure, demanding with loud voices that He be crucified. And their voices won out.So Pilate decided to grant their demand

When the people saw that Moses delayed in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said to him,“ Come, make us a god who will go before us because this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt— we don’t know what has happened to him!”Then Aaron replied to them,“ Take off the gold rings that are on the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters and bring them to me.”So all the people took off the gold rings that were on their ears and brought them to Aaron.He took the gold from their hands, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it into an image of a calf. Then they said,“ Israel, this is your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt!”When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; then he made an announcement:“ There will be a festival to the Lord tomorrow.”

My son, if sinners entice you, don’t be persuaded.If they say—“ Come with us! Let’s set an ambush and kill someone. Let’s attack some innocent person just for fun!

Although they know full well God’s just sentence— that those who practice such things deserve to die— they not only do them, but even applaud others who practice them.

Do not deny justice or show partiality to anyone. Do not accept a bribe, for it blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the righteous.

He said,“ Don’t do this evil, my brothers.Look, I’ve got two daughters who haven’t had sexual relations with a man. I’ll bring them out to you, and you can do whatever you want to them. However, don’t do anything to these men, because they have come under the protection of my roof.”“ Get out of the way!” they said, adding,“ This one came here as a foreigner, but he’s acting like a judge! Now we’ll do more harm to you than to them.” They put pressure on Lot and came up to break down the door.

However, when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, because he feared those from the circumcision party.Then the rest of the Jews joined his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

Before they went to bed, the men of the city of Sodom, both young and old, the whole population, surrounded the house.

Then Festus, wanting to do a favor for the Jews, replied to Paul,“ Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem, there to be tried before me on these charges?”

So King Zedekiah gave orders, and Jeremiah was placed in the guard’s courtyard. He was given a loaf of bread each day from the baker’s street until all the bread was gone from the city. So Jeremiah remained in the guard’s courtyard.
