⁶ and the sons of those smiting `him' he hath not put to death, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses that Jehovah commanded, saying, `Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers, but each for his own sin is put to death.'

⁴ Lo, all the souls are Mine, As the soul of the father, So also the soul of the son -- they are Mine, The soul that is sinning -- it doth die.

²⁰ The soul that doth sin -- it doth die. A son doth not bear of the iniquity of the father, And a father doth not bear of the iniquity of the son, The righteousness of the righteous is on him, And the wickedness of the wicked is on him.

¹⁶ `Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers -- each for his own sin, they are put to death.

³⁰ But -- each for his own iniquity doth die, Every man who is eating the unripe fruit, Blunted are his teeth.
