He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

"Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
