New English Translation

⁵ When he had secured control of the kingdom,^[a] he executed the servants who had assassinated his father.^{[b] 6} But he did not execute the sons of the assassins. He obeyed the Lord’s commandment as recorded in the scroll of the law of Moses, “Fathers must not be put to death for what their sons do,^[c] and sons must not be put to death for what their fathers do.^[d] A man must be put to death only for his own sin.”^[e]

⁷ He defeated^[f] 10,000 Edomites in the Salt Valley; he captured Sela in battle and renamed it Joktheel, a name it has retained to this very day.
