5 The children of sinners are detestable, and they live together in the neighborhoods of the ungodly.

Sirach 41:5 In-Context

3 Don't fear death's judgment; remember those who came before you and those who will come after you.
4 This is the Lord's judgment for all beings: Why should you reject the good pleasure of the Most High? Whether ten or one hundred or one thousand years, there's no arguing about life in the grave.
5 The children of sinners are detestable, and they live together in the neighborhoods of the ungodly.
6 The inheritance of sinners' children will be destroyed, and their offspring will always live in disgrace.
7 Children will blame an ungodly father, because they will be disgraced because of him.
