સંતાનોનાં પાપને કારણે તેઓનાં માતાપિતા માંર્યા જાય નહિ, માતાપિતાઓનાં પાપને કારણે સંતાનો માંર્યા જાય નહિ. પણ દરેક પોતાના પાપને કારણે માર્યો જાય.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण २४:१६
“पुत्र के कारण पिता न मार डाला जाए, और न पिता के कारण पुत्र मार डाला जाए; जिसने पाप किया हो वही उस पाप के कारण मार डाला जाए ।

In context

14You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who are in your land within your gates.

15In his day you shall give him his wages, neither shall the sun go down on it, for he is poor and sets his heart on it, lest he cry against you to the LORD, and it be sin to you.

16The 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.

17You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, nor take a widow’s clothing in pledge;

18but you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
