INJUSTICE, wrong — a crooked act, the opposite of tsedeq. ⭐ Leviticus 19 opens two laws with the same three words, you shall do no injustice: the clause stands in two verses of the Hebrew Bible, 19:15 for the courtroom (in judgment) and 19:35 for the market (in measure, in weight, in quantity), so that a bent verdict and a short measure are one crime under one word. Deuteronomy 25:16 closes its law of weights on it: everyone who does injustice is an abomination to Jehovah. ⚠ Deuteronomy 32:4 (not yet on these pages) denies it of God in one word, a God of faithfulness and without injustice, and Zephaniah 3:5 (not yet on these pages) repeats the denial with the root's feminine form, he does no injustice; Ezekiel 18 (not yet on these pages) makes doing avel the thing a righteous man turns to and dies of (18:24, 26). → first discussed at Deut 25:16
