2 Kings 14:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ except that the high places were not abolished. The people continued to offer sacrifices and to burn incense on the high places. ⁵ Later on, as soon as he was in firm control of his kingdom, he executed the servants who had murdered his father the king, ⁶ but he did not execute the children of the murderers, in keeping with what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, as the Lord had commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death because of their children’s sin; nor are children to die because of their fathers’ sin, for each person is to be put to death for his own sin.”^[a]
