The Book of Isaiah
(Composed and edited by various authors between the 8th and 4th centuries BCE)
“Those who walk righteously and speak uprightly,
who despise the gain of oppression,
who wave away a bribe instead of accepting it,
who stop their ears from hearing of bloodshed
and shut their eyes from looking on evil,
they will live on the heights;”
- Isaiah 33.15-16 (New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition translation, 2021)
