In context

3And it came to pass, when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he slew his servants who had slain the king his father.

4But he slew not their sons, according to the covenant of the law of the Lord, as it is written, and as the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, and the sons shall not die for the fathers, but they shall die each for his own sin.
