2 Kings 14:4-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
4
Only the high places were not eliminated; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
5
Now it came about, as soon as the kingdom was firmly in his hand, that he killed his servants who had killed the king, his father.
6
But he did not put the sons of the murderers to death, in obedience to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, as the
Lord
commanded, saying, 'The fathers shall not be put to death for the sons, nor the sons be put to death for the fathers; but each shall be put to death for his own sin.'
7
He killed ten thousand
of
the Edomites in the Valley of Salt, and took Sela by war, and named it Joktheel,
as it is
to this day.
King James Version
Chapter 14
4
Howbeit the high places were not taken away: as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.
5
And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in his hand, that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father.
6
But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the
Lord
commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
7
He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this day.

As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
6
However, he did not put the children of the killers to death, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses where the
Lord
commanded, "Fathers are not be put to death because of children, and children are not be put to death because of fathers; instead, each one will be put to death for his own sin."

Amaziah did not destroy the pagan shrines, and the people still offered sacrifices and burned incense there.
5
When Amaziah was well established as king, he executed the officials who had assassinated his father.
6
However, he did not kill the children of the assassins, for he obeyed the command of the
Lord
as written by Moses in the Book of the Law: 'Parents must not be put to death for the sins of their children, nor children for the sins of their parents. Those deserving to die must be put to death for their own crimes.'
7
Amaziah also killed 10,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. He also conquered Sela and changed its name to Joktheel, as it is called to this day.
