Children Punished for Their Father’s Sins

Please, Lord, prove that your power is as great as you have claimed it to be.  For you said, “The LORD is slow to anger and rich in unfailing love, forgiving every kind of sin and rebellion.  Even so he does not leave sin unpunished, but he punishes the children for the sins of their parents to the third and fourth generations.” (Numbers 14:17-18 NLT)
