'Inquisition' in the Bible

and the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and have testified falsely against his brother;

And when inquisition was made of the matter, and it was found to be so, they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king.

For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
