- a sinner:
- "I will ariseª° and goª° toª myª father,ª andª will sayª° unto him,ª Father,ª I have sinnedª° againstª heaven,ª andª beforeª thee,ª ... Andª the¹ sonª saidª° unto him,ª Father,ª I have sinnedª° againstª heaven,ª andª in²° thy² sight,ª¹ andª amª° no moreª worthyª to be calledª° thyª son.ª" {Lke 15:18-21} + "Butª the¹ otherª answeringª° rebukedª° him,ª saying,ª° Dost²° notª thouª fearª° God,ª seeingª thou artª° inª the¹ sameª condemnation?ª ... Andª Jesusª saidª° unto him,ª Verilyª I sayª° unto thee,ª To dayª shalt thou beª° withª meª inª paradise.ª" {Lke 23:40-43} + "And when he was in affliction,ª° he besoughtª°¹ the LORDª¹ his God,ª and humbled²° himself¹ greatlyª beforeª¹ the Godª of his fathers,ª ... And prayedª° unto¹ him: and he was intreatedª° of him, and heardª° his supplication,ª and brought him againª° to Jerusalemª into his kingdom.ª Then Manassehª knewª° that¹ the LORDª he¹ [was] God.ª" {2Ch 33:12-13} + "His prayerª also, and [how God] was intreatedª° of him, and all¹ his sin,ª and his trespass,ª and the placesª wherein¹ he builtª° high places,ª and set upª° grovesª and graven images,ª beforeª he was humbled:ª° behold,¹ they [are] writtenª° among¹ the sayingsª of the seers.ª²°" {2Ch 33:19} + "And humbled²° not himself¹¹ beforeª¹ the LORD,ª as Manassehª his fatherª had humbled²° himself;¹ but¹ Amonª trespassedª more and more.ª°" {2Ch 33:23} + "We have sinnedª° with¹ our fathers,ª we have committed iniquity,ª° we have done wickedly.ª°" {Psa 106:6} + "Come¹ now,²°¹ and let us reason together,ª° saithª° the LORD:ª though¹ your sinsª be¹ as scarlet,ª they shall be as whiteª° as snow;ª though¹ they be redª° like crimson,ª they shall be¹ as wool.ª" {Isa 1:18} + "Thou meetestª°¹ him that rejoicethª° and workethª° righteousness,ª [those that] rememberª° thee in thy ways:ª behold,¹ thou¹ art wroth;ª° for we have sinned:ª° in those is continuance,ª and we shall be saved.ª° ... But we are¹ all¹ as an uncleanª [thing], and all¹ our righteousnessesª [are] as filthyª rags;ª and we all¹ do fadeª°°²° as a leaf;ª and our iniquities,ª like the wind,ª have taken us away.ª°" {Isa 64:5-6} + "Butª go¹ ye²° and learnª° whatª [that] meaneth,ª° I willª° have mercy,ª andª notª sacrifice:ª forª I am²° notª comeª° to callª° the righteous,ª butª sinnersª toª repentance.ª" {Mtt 9:13} + "Butª Godª commendethª° hisª loveª towardª us,ª in that,ª while weª wereª° yetª sinners,ª Christª diedª° forª us.ª" {Rom 5:8} + "Moreoverª the lawª entered,ª° thatª the¹ offenceª might abound.ª° Butª whereª sinª abounded,ª° graceª did much more abound:ª° ... Thatª asª sinª hath reignedª° untoª death,ª evenª soª might²° graceª reignª° throughª righteousnessª untoª eternalª lifeª byª Jesusª Christª ourª Lord.ª" {Rom 5:20-21} + "This [is] a faithfulª saying,ª andª worthyª of allª acceptation,ª thatª Christª Jesusª cameª° intoª the¹ worldª to saveª° sinners;ª of whomª Iª amª° chief.ª" {1Tm 1:15} + "Ifª we sayª° thatª we haveª° noª sin,ª we deceiveª° ourselves,ª andª the¹ truthª isª° notª inª us.ª ... Ifª we sayª° thatª we have²° notª sinned,ª° we makeª° himª a liar,ª andª his²¹ wordª isª° notª inª us.ª" {1Jn 1:8-10}
