אָרוּר֙ לֹקֵ֣חַ שֹׁ֔חַד לְהַכּ֥וֹת נֶ֖פֶשׁ דָּ֣ם נָקִ֑י וְאָמַ֥ר כָּל־הָעָ֖ם אָמֵֽן׃ (ס)
‘Sumpain ang tumatanggap ng suhol upang patayin ang isang taong walang sala.’ At ang buong bayan ay magsasabi: ‘Amen.’
Exodus
Do not accept bribery, for bribery blinds the clear-sighted, and perverts the words of justice.
