2 Kings 14:4-6

English Standard Version

^4 (A)But the high places were not removed; ^(B)the people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. ⁵ And as soon as the royal power was ^(C)firmly in his hand, he struck down his servants ^(D)who had struck down the king his father. ⁶ But he did not put to death the children of the murderers, according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, where the Lord commanded, ^(E)“Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. But each one shall die for his own sin.”
