Jeremiah 31:29-31
Living Bible
29 The people shall no longer quote this proverb—“Children pay for their fathers’ sins.”[a] 30 For everyone shall die for his own sins—the person eating sour grapes is the one whose teeth are set on edge.
31 The day will come, says the Lord, when I will make a new contract with the people of Israel and Judah.
