Deuteronomy 1:17

English Standard Version

17 You shall not be partial in judgment. You shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be intimidated by anyone, for the judgment is God’s. And the case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.’ (Ex 18:22; Ex 18:26; Ex 21:6; Ex 23:2; Le 19:15; De 16:19; 2Ch 19:6; 2Ch 19:7; Pr 24:23; Pr 28:21; Mal 2:9; Jas 2:1; Jas 2:9)

New International Version

17 Do not show partiality in judging; hear both small and great alike. Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too hard for you, and I will hear it.’

New International Reader’s Version

17 When you judge them, treat everyone the same. Listen to those who are important and those who are not. Don’t be afraid of anyone. God is the highest judge. Bring me any case that is too hard for you. I’ll listen to it.’

King James Version

17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God': and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.
