And you shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds the clear-sighted and subverts the cause of those who are in the right. (Exodus 23:8, ESV)
The wicked accepts a bribe in secret to pervert the ways of justice. (Proverbs 17:23, ESV)
By justice a king builds up the land, but he who exacts gifts tears it down. (Proverbs 29:4, ESV)
Your princes are rebels and companions of thieves. Everyone loves a bribe and runs after gifts.
They do not bring justice to the fatherless, and the widow’s cause does not come to them. (Isaiah 1:23, ESV)
