- Just so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
- Give heed to my reproof;
I will pour out my thoughts to you;
I will make my words known to you. - The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. - Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.
- Let us test and examine our ways,
and return to the Lord. - But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even look up to heaven, but was beating his breast and saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
- When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil ways, God changed his mind about the calamity that he had said he would bring upon them; and he did not do it.
