2 Chronicles 25:3-5
Tree of Life Version
3 Once he had the kingdom firmly secured under him, he executed his courtiers who had assassinated his father the king. 4 He did not put their children to death, but acted according to what is written in the Torah, in the book of Moses, which Adonai commanded saying,
“Parents should not die for the children, neither should the children die for the parents, but every person should die for his own sin.”
5 Amaziah gathered together the people of Judah and assigned them according to their clans to officers of thousands and officers of hundreds for all Judah and Benjamin. He mustered those from 20 years old and upward, and found 300,000 chosen men, able to go to war, able to handle spear and shield.
