¹⁷ For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who is not partial and takes no bribe,^(A)

Gentiles Hear the Good News

³⁴ Then Peter began to speak to them: “I truly understand that God shows no partiality,^(A)

²⁵ For the wrongdoer will be paid back for whatever wrong has been done, and there is no partiality.^(A)

¹⁷ If you invoke as Father the one who judges impartially according to each person’s work, live in fear during the time of your exile.^(A)

⁹ And, masters,^[a] do the same to them. Stop threatening them, for you know that both of you have the same Lord^[b] in heaven, and with him there is no partiality.^(A)

⁷ Now, let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take care what you do, for there is no perversion of justice with the Lord our God or partiality or taking of bribes.”^(A)
