Note: These word pages enable you to click through to the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible (OSHB) that the Open English Translation Old Testament is translated from. The OSHB is based on the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC). (We are still searching for a digitized facsimile of the Leningradensis manuscript that we can easily link to. See this list and this archive for now.) This is all part of the commitment of the Open English Translation team to be transparent about all levels of the Bible translation process right back to the original manuscripts.

OET-LV: 6 And_DOM the _children _of those _who _had_struck _down not he _put _to _death according_what _is_written in_the _book _of the _law _of Mosheh which he _commanded YHWH to_say not they _will _be _put _to _death parents on children and_children not they _will _be _put _to _death on parents if/because (if) each for_his _own _of_sin he _will _be _put _to _death. (KI2_14:6)

OET-RV: 6 but he didn’t have their sons executed, because in the scroll where Mosheh had written the laws, Yahweh had commanded, “Fathers shouldn’t be executed for what their sons do, nor should sons be executed for the crimes of their ancestors—rather an individual should only be executed for their own crime.” (KI2 14:6)
