Ezra 7:25-26

New International Version

²⁵ And you, Ezra, in accordance with the wisdom of your God, which you possess, appoint^(A) magistrates and judges to administer justice to all the people of Trans-Euphrates—all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach^(B) any who do not know them. ²⁶ Whoever does not obey the law of your God and the law of the king must surely be punished by death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.^[a](C)
