5 And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was established in his hand, that he killed his servants who had struck the king, his father.

6 And the sons of those striking he did not kill, as it is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, in which YHWH commanded, saying, “Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, and children shall not be put to death for their fathers; for but a person for his own sin shall be put to death.”
