Hm. Brings to mind Exodus:
"...for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the
fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that
hate me."
(This actually has to do w/ worshipping false gods, but seems to pertain)

Toxins may pass down generations
Toxic chemicals that poisoned your great-grandparents may also damage
your health, US research suggests.
A team from Washington State University has produced evidence that
some inherited diseases may be caused by poisons polluting the womb.
Research on rats indicates man-made environmental toxins may alter
genetic activity, giving rise to diseases that pass down at least
four generations.
The research is published in the journal Science.
Worshipping the false gods of idleness, self indulgence and wealth might
JUST be what the passage is about!

Only now in the light of what JTT is quoting is this rather odd passage
becoming more clear to me. We in fact sow the seeds our own destruction
and then try to blame it on God.
