Ezekiel 18:13

¹¹ though the father has done none of them: Indeed, the son eats at the mountain and defiles his neighbor’s wife.

¹² He oppresses the poor and needy; he commits robbery and does not restore a pledge. He lifts his eyes to idols; he commits abominations.

He engages in usury and takes excess interest. Will this son live? He will not! Since he has committed all these abominations, he will surely die; his blood will be on his own head.

¹⁴ Now suppose this son has a son who sees all the sins his father has committed, considers them, and does not do likewise:

¹⁵ He does not eat at the mountain or look to the idols of the house of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor’s wife.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
