10 ‘Suppose he has a violent son, who sheds blood or does any of these other things
11 (though the father has done none of them):‘He eats at the mountain shrines.He defiles his neighbour’s wife.
12 He oppresses the poor and needy.He commits robbery.He does not return what he took in pledge.He looks to the idols.He does detestable things.
13 He lends at interest and takes a profit.Will such a man live? He will not! Because he has done all these detestable things, he is to be put to death; his blood will be on his own head.
14 ‘But suppose this son has a son who sees all the sins his father commits, and though he sees them, he does not do such things:
15 ‘He does not eat at the mountain shrinesor look to the idols of Israel.He does not defile his neighbour’s wife.
16 He does not oppress anyoneor require a pledge for a loan.He does not commit robbery,but gives his food to the hungryand provides clothing for the naked.
