Do not have other gods besides me.
How joyful is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered!
How joyful is a person whom the Lord does not charge with iniquity and in whose spirit is no deceit!
When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.
For day and night your hand was heavy on me; my strength was drained as in the summer’s heat.Selah
Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not conceal my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and you forgave the guilt of my sin.Selah
Therefore let everyone who is faithful pray to you immediately. When great floodwaters come, they will not reach him.
Completely wash away my guilt and cleanse me from my sin.
For I am conscious of my rebellion, and my sin is always before me.
Against you — you alone — I have sinned and done this evil in your sight. So you are right when you pass sentence; you are blameless when you judge.
The sacrifice pleasing to God is a broken spirit. You will not despise a broken and humbled heart, God.
We all went astray like sheep; we all have turned to our own way; and the Lord has punished him for the iniquity of us all.
And he said, “What comes out of a person is what defiles him.
For from within, out of people’s hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immoralities, thefts, murders,
adulteries, greed, evil actions, deceit, self-indulgence, envy, slander, pride, and foolishness.
All these evil things come from within and defile a person.”
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God;
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
If we say, “We have no sin,” we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Everyone who commits sin practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin that doesn’t lead to death.
