Deuteronomy 24:15-17
GOD’S WORD Translation
15 Pay them each day before sunset because they are poor and need their pay. Otherwise, they will complain to the Lord about you, and you will be condemned for your sin.
16 Parents must never be put to death for the crimes of their children, and children must never be put to death for the crimes of their parents. Each person must be put to death for his own crime.
17 Never deprive foreigners and orphans of justice. And never take widows’ clothes to guarantee a loan.
