Job 33:27-28
27He sings before men and says:‘I asinned and perverted what was right,
and it was not repaid to me.
28He has redeemed my bsoul from going down cinto the pit,
and my life shall dlook upon the light.’
Jeremiah 31:18-20
18I have heard eEphraim grieving,‘You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined,
like an untrained calf;
fbring me back that I may be restored,
for you are the Lord my God.
19For after gI had turned away, I relented,
and after I was instructed, hI struck my thigh;
iI was ashamed, and I was confounded,
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’
20 jIs Ephraim my dear son?
kIs he my darling child?
For as often as I speak against him,
I do remember him still.
lTherefore my heart ▼
▼Hebrew bowels
yearns for him;I will surely have mercy on him,
declares the Lord.
Luke 15:18
18I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, nI have sinned against oheaven and before you.
