“ Our law doesn’t judge a man before it hears from him and knows what he’s doing, does it?”

“不先听本人的口供，不知道他所做的事，难道我们的律法还定他的罪吗？”

“不先听本人的口供，查明他所做的事，难道我们的律法还定他的罪吗？”

“不先听本人的口供，查明他所做的事，难道我们的律法还定他的罪吗？”

“难道不听被告申辩，不查明事实真相，我们的律法就定祂的罪吗？”

“如果不先听取他本人的口供，查明他所作的事，我们的律法怎能把他定罪呢？”

“如果不先听本人的口供，并且了解他做了什么，我们的律法就定不了他的罪，难道不是吗？”

「不先聽本人的口供，不知道他所做的事，難道我們的律法還定他的罪嗎？」

「不先聽本人的口供，查明他所做的事，難道我們的律法還定他的罪嗎？」

「不先聽本人的口供，查明他所做的事，難道我們的律法還定他的罪嗎？」

「難道不聽被告申辯，不查明事實真相，我們的律法就定祂的罪嗎？」

“如果不先聽取他本人的口供，查明他所作的事，我們的律法怎能把他定罪呢？”

『若不先聽聽他本人的口供，而知道他所作的是甚麼事，難道我們的律法還定人的罪麼？』

「如果不先聽本人的口供，並且了解他做了什麼，我們的律法就定不了他的罪，難道不是嗎？」

未聽其言、不識其所為、而鞫之、豈我律乎、

未聽訟、不識其所為、我律豈罪之、

未究詰人、不識其所為、我律法豈罪之乎、

『未先聽訟、一究其所行、吾法豈能遽加以罪乎？』

“ Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing?”

“ Does our law find a man guilty without hearing him first? Doesn’t it want to find out what he is doing?”

“ Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?”

“ Is it legal to convict a man before he is given a hearing?” he asked.

“ Our Law does not judge the person unless it first hears from him and knows what he is doing, does it?”

“ Does our law judge a man before it hears him and knows what he is doing?”

Doth our law judge a man, except it first hear from himself and know what he doeth?

“ Our law doesn’t judge a man before it hears from him and knows what he’s doing, does it?”

Doth our law judge[ any] man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?

“ Our law doesn’t condemn a man unless it first hears from him and learns what he is doing, does it?”

“ Does our law judge a man, unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”

The one who gives an answer before he listens— this is foolishness and disgrace for him.

Then Paul said to him,“ God is going to strike you, you whitewashed wall! You are sitting there judging me according to the law, and yet in violation of the law are you ordering me to be struck?”

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.

“ If a case is too difficult for you— concerning bloodshed, lawsuits, or assaults— cases disputed at your city gates, then go up to the place the LORD your God chooses.You are to go to the Levitical priests and to the judge who presides at that time. Ask, and they will give you a verdict in the case.You must abide by the verdict they give you at the place the LORD chooses. Be careful to do exactly as they instruct you.You must abide by the instruction they give you and the verdict they announce to you. Do not turn to the right or the left from the decision they declare to you.

“ One witness cannot establish any iniquity or sin against a person, whatever that person has done. A fact must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.“ If a malicious witness testifies against someone accusing him of a crime,the two people in the dispute are to stand in the presence of the LORD before the priests and judges in authority at that time.The judges are to make a careful investigation, and if the witness turns out to be a liar who has falsely accused his brother,you must do to him as he intended to do to his brother. You must purge the evil from you.

The one condemned to die is to be executed on the testimony of two or three witnesses. No one is to be executed on the testimony of a single witness.
