Repentance

if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your lovingkindness; according to the multitude of Your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart — these, O God, You will not despise.

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

Come now, and let us reason together, says the Lord, though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

Return, you backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Indeed we do come to You, for You are the Lord our God.

Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, says the Lord God. Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin.

For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies, says the Lord God. Therefore turn and live!

So rend your heart, and not your garments; return to the Lord your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness; and He relents from doing harm.

Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!

From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.

I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.

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

and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Then Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.

Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent.

but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.

Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

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

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place — unless you repent.

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.
