- Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
- Turn you at my reproof:
behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you,
I will make known my words unto you. - The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit:
a broken and a contrite heart,
O God, thou wilt not despise. - Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
- Let us search and try our ways,
and turn again to the Lord. - And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
and his ears are open unto their cry. If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.Next verse!With image
