Exodus 20:5-6

⁵You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,

⁶but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.
