His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.

Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin.

In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

So Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and doesn’t sin.

There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.

Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.

Wicked people earn deceitful wages, but one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.

Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name’s sake.

He said, “That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man. For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts, covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile the man.”

Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but Yahweh upholds the righteous.

Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.

For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

He said, “That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man. For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts, covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile the man.”

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.

And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.

If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.

Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.

Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us.

He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.

There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.

As knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine, according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.

If anyone sins, doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, though he didn’t know it, he is still guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.

Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?

Namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.

When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment.

For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.

But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints.

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?

But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.

For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.

To him therefore who knows to do good and doesn’t do it, to him it is sin.

Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

Yahweh, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times. Don’t remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness’ sake, Yahweh.

“I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am Yahweh,” says the Lord Yahweh, “when I am proven holy in you before their eyes.”

This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer. Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name’s sake.

What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!

Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.

For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.

If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him. If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.

And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn’t retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.

Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.”

For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions.

Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.

All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.

But the Scripture imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

Yahweh’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.

Wash yourselves. Make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.

You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its flavor, with what will it be salted? It is then good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men.

But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.

He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul, but he who is contemptuous in his ways shall die.

That as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Many will purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined, but the wicked will do wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.

Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me.

He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.

You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery;’ but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”

You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask.

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a good person someone would even dare to die. But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.

Yahweh God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand, and also take of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever—” Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. God relented of the disaster which he said he would do to them, and he didn’t do it.

But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn’t even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’

Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.

Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

Return, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions, so iniquity will not be your ruin.

But if the wicked turns from all his sins that he has committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live. He shall not die.

I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions, and, as a cloud, your sins. Return to me, for I have redeemed you.

I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.

Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord.

Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.

For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

We have sinned, and have dealt perversely, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from your precepts and from your ordinances.

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord.

It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall confess that in which he has sinned.

He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot. You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

Their eyes were opened, and they both knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made coverings for themselves.

If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.

Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.

If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.

He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, “All of you drink it, for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.”

According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.

“Come now, and let’s reason together,” says Yahweh: “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”

In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.

Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

The memory of the righteous is blessed, but the name of the wicked will rot.

Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers.

The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

Now why do you wait? Arise, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.

“Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, and don’t give place to the devil.

He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.”

For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection; knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.

I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
