- In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing among the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
- If you would seriously consider my reproof,
I would pour out my thoughts to you
and make my precepts known to you. - My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a contrite and humble heart, O God,
you will not spurn. - Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is close at hand.
- Let us examine and test our ways
and return to the Lord. - The tax collector, however, stood some distance away and would not even raise his eyes to heaven. Rather, he kept beating his breast as he said, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner.’
