Ezekiel 18:2-4

2“1What do you people mean by using this proverb about the land of Israel, saying, ‘2The fathers eat sour grapes, 3But it is the children’s teeth that have become blunt’? 3As I live,” declares the Lord 4God, “you certainly are not going to use this proverb in Israel anymore. 4Behold, 5all 6souls are Mine; the 7soul of the father as well as the 8soul of the son is Mine. The 9soul who 10sins will die.
