Ezekiel 18:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² That you use among you this parable as a proverb in the land of Israel, saying: The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge.

³ As I live, saith the Lord God, this parable shall be no more to you a proverb in Israel.

⁴ Behold all souls are mine: as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, the same shall die.
