Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶ “Fathers are not to be put to death for their children or children for their fathers; each person will be put to death for his own sin.^{(A) 17} Do not deny justice to a foreigner or fatherless child, and do not take a widow’s garment as security. ¹⁸ Remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the Lord your God redeemed^(B) you from there. Therefore I am commanding you to do this.^(C)
