Ezekiel 18:1-4

The word of the LORD came to me: ‘What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel: ‘ “The parents eat sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge”? ‘As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, you will no longer quote this proverb in Israel. For everyone belongs to me, the parent as well as the child – both alike belong to me. The one who sins is the one who will die.
