Ezekiel 18:14

"Now, lo, if he beget a son, that seeth all his father's sins, which he hath done, and feareth, and doeth not such like; that hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hath not defiled his neighbor's wife, neither hath wronged any, hath not taken aught to pledge, neither hath taken by robbery, but hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment; that hath withdrawn his hand from the poor, that hath not received interest nor increase, hath executed mine ordinances, hath walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live. As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he shall die in his iniquity."

THE CASE OF THE GODLY GRANDSON

"That hath withdrawn his hand from the poor ..." (Ezekiel 18:17). "This is to be understood in a good sense, to withhold his hand from oppressing the poor. He withdraws the hand that was tempted to exact the full legal claim against the poor."[12]
