2 Kings 14:4-6

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁴ but the high places were still not removed. The people were still offering sacrifices and burning incense at the high places.

⁵ When the royal power was firmly in his hand, he killed his officials who had killed his father the king. ⁶ But he did not put the sons of the assassins to death, in obedience to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, in which the Lord commanded, “Fathers are not to be put to death on account of their sons, and sons are not to be put to death on account of their fathers, but each person will die for his own sin.”^[a]
