Fathers and sons

By extension: the older and younger generations.

(“Therefore thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbor and his friend shall perish.” – Jeremiah 6:21; and: “So may it be His will, while fathers and sons still walk hand in hand among us, we shall not fear: let the words ‘waters have come up to the soul’ be fulfilled—only our enemies shall drown in them.” – Shaul Tchernichovsky / The Parting of the Sea)
