And do not consume the wealth of one another unjustly, and do not bring forth their cases to people of authority so that you unlawfully consume a portion of people’s property knowingly.[1]

Commentary

[1]

Making a false case against someone for unlawful gain is prohibited, and to bribe or influence people of authority for unlawful gain, harming others in the process, is also prohibited. Those who interact with people of authority should consider the ruling of this verse.
