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

I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and You forgave the iniquity of my sin.

Now turn from your sins and turn to God, so you can be cleansed from your sins. Then wonderful times of refreshment will come from the presence of the Lord.

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