THE CONFESSION OF SINS
Mt 3:5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region
round about Jordan,
6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
Lu 15:18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I
have sinned against heaven, and before you,
19 And am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hired
servants.
20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off,
his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and
kissed him.
21 And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in
your sight, and am no more worthy to be called your son.
18:13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his
eyes to heaven, but smote on his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a
sinner.
2 Cor 7:10 For godly sorrow works repentance to salvation not to be repented
of: but the sorrow of the world works death.
Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that
you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails
much.
1 Joh 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our
sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Lev 5:4 Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do
good, whatever it be that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be hid
from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.
5 And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he
shall confess that he has sinned in that thing:
6 And he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD for his sin which he
has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin
offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
16:20 And when he has made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the
tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and
confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their
transgressions in all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and
shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
22 And the goat shall bear on him all their iniquities to a land not
inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
26:39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in
your enemies’ lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they
pine away with them.
40 If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers,
with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they
have walked contrary to me;
Num 5:5 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6 Speak to the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin
that men commit, to do a trespass against the LORD, and that person be
guilty;
7 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall
recompense his trespass with the principal thereof, and add to it the fifth
part thereof, and give it to him against whom he has trespassed.
2 Sam 12:13 And David said to Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And
Nathan said to David, The LORD also has put away your sin; you shall not
die.
24:10 And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And
David said to the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now,
I beseech you, O LORD, take away the iniquity of your servant; for I have
done very foolishly.
Neh 1:5 And said, I beseech you, O LORD God of heaven, the great and
terrible God, that keeps covenant and mercy for them that love him and
observe his commandments:
6 Let your ear now be attentive, and your eyes open, that you may hear the
prayer of your servant, which I pray before you now, day and night, for the
children of Israel your servants, and confess the sins of the children of
Israel, which we have sinned against you: both I and my father’s house have
sinned.
7 We have dealt very corruptly against you, and have not kept the
commandments, nor the statutes, nor the judgments, which you commanded your
servant Moses.
9:2 And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and
stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.
3 And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the
LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they
confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.
Job 42:1 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
2 I know that you can do every thing, and that no thought can be withheld
from you.
3 Who is he that hides counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered
that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 Hear, I beseech you, and I will speak: I will demand of you, and declare
you to me.
5 I have heard of you by the hearing of the ear: but now my eye sees you.
6 Why I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
Ps 25:11 For your name’s sake, O LORD, pardon my iniquity; for it is great.
32:4 For day and night your hand was heavy on me: my moisture is turned into
the drought of summer. Selah.
5 I acknowledge my sin to you, and my iniquity have I not hid. I said, I
will confess my transgressions to the LORD; and you forgave the iniquity of
my sin. Selah.
51:1 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your loving kindness: according
to the multitude of your tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against you, you only, have I sinned, and done this evil in your sight:
that you might be justified when you speak, and be clear when you judge.
5 Behold, I was shaped in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part you
shall make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter
than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which you have broken may
rejoice.
9 Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from your presence; and take not your holy spirit from
me.
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation; and uphold me with your free
spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors your ways; and sinners shall be converted
to you.
Pr 28:13 He that covers his sins shall not prosper: but whoever confesses
and forsakes them shall have mercy.
Jer 3:12 Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, you
backsliding Israel, said the LORD; and I will not cause my anger to fall on
you: for I am merciful, said the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.
13 Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against the
LORD your God, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every
green tree, and you have not obeyed my voice, said the LORD.
Dan 9:4 And I prayed to the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O
Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them
that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;
5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and
have rebelled, even by departing from your precepts and from your judgments:
6 Neither have we listened to your servants the prophets, which spoke in
your name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people
of the land.
9:19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, listen and do; defer not, for
your own sake, O my God: for your city and your people are called by your
name.
20 And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin
of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God
for the holy mountain of my God;
21 Yes, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had
seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me
about the time of the evening oblation.
