- In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
- Repent at my rebuke!
Then I will pour out my thoughts to you,
I will make known to you my teachings. - My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise. - Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.
- Let us examine our ways and test them,
and let us return to the Lord. - But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.Next verse!With image
