NRS John 7:24 Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."
Me krinete kai opsin
Not judge, determine, etc. with, by outward appearances
alla ten dikaian krisin krinete.
but the right, just judgment, justice judge, determine, etc.
Since they are both accusative, I believe that the adjective dikaian modifies krisin.
Now this took me about 30 minutes, and probably exhausts my research capabilities for the day!
