The Bible does not condone bribery and corruption. The bible states truth, honesty, fairness. However you may send gifts to soften up a person. Abraham did this to get camping right for his sheep and goats. In the bible it states that all deeds or darkness will be brought to light. So everything you do in secret will be known by everyone eventually. Good to remember.
My experience has been that no matter how much of a secret you might try to make something someone always sees what you do. They may never say anything, but there is always at least one.
Conclusion, consider if you would want what you are going to do brought out into the daylight for all your family and friends to see. If you would not---then do not do it.
Corruption only makes the society we live in worse. The ninth commandment of the bible found in the book of exodus states,
"Do not to bear false witness against thy neighbor" ( your fellow person).
It's a biggy. Also treat a rich and poor person alike when judging. You are not to be biased but just and fair.
Biblical teachings condemn bribery and corruption as they go against the values of honesty, justice, and righteousness. Proverbs 15:27 states, "Whoever is greedy for unjust gain troubles his own household, but he who hates bribes will live." Additionally, Deuteronomy 16:19 emphasizes the importance of justice and impartiality, stating "You shall not pervert justice. You shall not show partiality, and you shall not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and subverts the cause of the righteous."
