Deuteronomy 24:16-18

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ “The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

¹⁷ “Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger nor of the fatherless, nor take a widow’s raiment in pledge;

¹⁸ but thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the Lord thy God redeemed thee thence. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.
