But select capable men from all the people— men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain— and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.

兄弟宜於爾中、擇有眾望、感聖神、具智慧者、七人、來司此事、

在猶大諸邑立士師、告之曰、爾其謹恪、聽訟非為人、乃代耶和華、蓋聽訟之時、耶和華實鑒之、當畏耶和華、慎爾所為、凡行不義、以貌取人、賄賂是貪者、我上帝耶和華不悅。○約沙法使利未人、及祭司以色列族中最著者、歸耶路撒冷、代耶和華聽訟鞫事、告之曰、當夤畏耶和華、盡乃心、真實無妄、如爾邑中、同儕有訟事、為流血、為犯律例禁令、禮儀法度、爾當訓眾、勿違耶和華、恐其怒爾、及爾同儕、爾如是行、則可無過。

於爾上帝耶和華所賜爾諸邑、各支派中、當立刑官族長、使其秉公鞫民、毋反其正、毋偏視人、毋受賄賂、蓋賂使明者暗、以直為曲、

以色列族至能之上帝許我曰、必有義主、畏上帝而治人。

貸人金、不取利、不迫索、與人交、不作惡、恆為善、

於以色列族中、簡才能出眾者、立為民長、即千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長、

在耶路撒冷逵衢、宜急遍行稽察、若得一人行義言真、則其餘亦必加寛宥。

所視無非惡色、獲罪不已、厥必常貪、信道不篤者、為其所惑、如此之人、可以咒詛、離正道而迷罔、從破朔子巴蘭之行、巴蘭貪不義之利、

我濟困乏、猶父之慈子、疏者我為之理其事、

又遣各支派牧伯十人、乃以色列億兆中最著者。

我往之後、耶和華之神必感爾、使爾他往、不知何適、我既進告、彼索爾不得、則必殺我、然我自幼迄今、寅畏耶和華。

爾所宜行者無他、在閭閻則言真實、在公庭則行大義、

久而不許、後自思曰、我雖不畏上帝、不禮世人、

孰能聽訟於斯眾之間乎、故祈爾使僕聰慧、可辨是非、為民折中。耶和華聞所羅門所祈、而悅其言、謂之曰、爾不求遐齡、巨富、勝敵、乃求聰慧、可以聽訟、我則許爾所求、以智慧之心錫汝、爾之前未有若是、爾之後亦不能若是。

惟彼善人、言信而行義、不取非義之利、不受賄賂、耳不聞殺伐之聲、目不睹怪僻之事、

可於支派中、簡爾所識、智慧獨具者、我立之為長、治理爾曹。爾曹乃對曰、斯言甚善、我遂於支派諸長中、簡智慧之人、眾所識者、立為牧伯、千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長、治理爾曹、我命士師云、聽訟於宗族賓旅間、以正理為折中、鞫事屬上帝、汝鞫人時、毋行偏視、無論尊卑、必聽其訟、不可畏人、如事關重大、則告於我、我為剖析、

苟圖富有、陷誘惑、罹羅網、溺於無理有害之欲、終必沉淪、好利為萬惡根、有人慕之、則背於道、以多苦自刺、惟爾事上帝之人、在所必戒、而從義、虔、信、仁、柔、忍、

我萬有之主耶和華曰、當秉公義、矜憫為懷、相待以仁、

勿視我等於罪人、而與殘賊者同科兮、彼染污俗、受賄賂兮、

事之大略、爾其聽之、寅畏上帝、守其誡命、此人之大端。

我見司城哈拿尼亞、竭其忠心、寅畏上帝、非眾所能及、故使偕吾弟哈拿尼、同治耶路撒冷、

曰、爾子莫擊莫傷、我知爾畏我、蓋爾嫡子、惟此一人、猶且不惜、以獻於我。

其子不肖、惟利是視、受賄反正。

毋從俗以行惡、有訟立證、毋狥眾以反正。貧者有訟、亦勿狥私。如遇仇之牛驢、迷於歧路、則當牽之返、見憾汝者之驢、負重伏地、則勿遺之、速解其載。貧者有訟、毋反其正。遠諸偽為、勿殺無辜、毋戮義人、蓋我不釋違義者。毋受賄、蓋賄使明者暗、以直為曲。毋侮旅人、昔汝為旅於埃及、故悉旅人之情況。

由是嗣大闢為王者、矜憫為懷、秉公行義、真實無妄、厥祚綿長、

吹一角時、以色列族牧伯、千夫長、必集見爾。

立為千夫長、五十夫長者有之、使耕田畝、穫其所產、作戰具、製車器者、亦有之。

秉公義者、遠遁遙立、言真實者、仆於逵衢、不敢入邑。尚誠慤者不可得、改惡行者每遇害、援手無人、保護無人、耶和華見仁義衰頹、惄然憂之、彰厥仁義、顯厥大能、以拯斯民焉。

我又曰、爾所為不善、尚其寅畏上帝、則敵我之異邦人、誰敢侮予。

何嘗奪人之牛驢、何嘗虐取人、挾制人、受人之賄賂以蔽我明、有一於此、我即償之。我在此於耶和華前、及受膏者前、彼得為證。僉曰、爾未嘗虐取我、挾制我、未嘗奪人物。

人喜涉訟、不懷公義、不尚真實、譸張為幻、藏於中者詭譎、行於外者邪慝。

如我不公以涖下、使彼抱屈、

我未嘗貪人金銀幣帛、

不貸人金、重權其子母兮、不受苞苴、害彼無辜兮、凡若此、是以無傾跌之虞兮。

國亂則主迭更、民良則邦永治。

曰、邑有士師、不畏上帝、不禮世人、

受賄以殺人、取利追索、棄我耶和華。

不酗不競、非義之利勿取、必寛裕溫良、務絕貪婪、
