Repentance

Repentance

Repentance is turning away from sin. If you truly repent, YAH forgives you. No blood needs to be shed to buy YAH's forgiveness. This has always been true. Nothing you've ever done bars you from salvation. Yah's only concern is what you do from here on.

447 SCRIPTURES on the theme of Repentance

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Chronicles 7:14 When my people (who are called by my Name) humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways—then I hear from heaven. I forgive their sin[s]. I heal their land.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:18 I'll get up and run away to my father. [I'll] say to him, ‘Father, I've sinned against heaven, and against you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 4:29 But if, from [your exile in the land of pagan materialism,] you seek YHVH your Elohim, you, 😇, eventually find him—[but only] IF you seek him with ALL your heart and with ALL your soul.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 3:6 [Royal soldiers race on their huge black war-horses to tell] the news of [Jonah's doom prophecy to] the king of Nineveh, [the Emperor of the vast Assyrian Empire]. The king stands up from his [Imperial] throne. [He strips naked.] He lays down his robe. He covers himself with sackcloth. He sits [mourning, repenting. He pours] ashes [over his head. He cries in remorse for his countless murders.]
note: Like Presidents of the modern nations, especially the United States, this king murdered countless innocent people. He knew he had no hope except to repent.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 3:2 JAHn shouts, “You Repent, 😇! The Kingdom of Heaven lies at hand!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 9:43 😇, if your ‘hand’ ensnares you, cut it off! It's better for you to enter into [eternal] life [physically] maimed, than to keep both hands while you fall into the unquenchable trash-fire [of the universe, (Gei-Hinnom)].
note: Don't literally damage your body, as some silly ‘saints’ do. Rather, stay pure. Get rid of everything and everyone around you that causes or helps you to sin. ‘Hand’ represents your power to choose and your buying habits. See Rev 13:16 for discussion of the mark of the beast in your hand.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 9:45 And if your “foot” makes you [spiritually] stumble, 😇, cut it off. It's better for you to enter lame into Life, than for [angels] to hurl you two-footed into the unquenchable trash-fire [of the universe (Gei-Hinnom)].
note: ‘Foot’ is a metaphor for whatever on which you base your ‘walk’ through life. Your core relationships, philosophies and habits, and your mode of travel. Real disciples walk. Bogus disciples jet around in planes with passports obtained by swearing oaths to the Satan-Nations.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:10 Likewise, I tell you, 😇, the angels of [YHVH] the Eloah [throw a] joyful [party of dancing] for every sinner who repents.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:19 —I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me like one of your hired servants.’

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:21 The son [cries], ‘Father, beneath your [loving] eyes, I've sinned against heaven. I'm no longer worthy to be called your son.’

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Apocalypsis (Revelation) 2:16 Repent, 😇. Or I'll rush at you. I war against the [hypocrites among you] with the sword [flying] of my mouth.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 9:27 So, 😇, Pharaoh sends [his soldiers] to summon Moses and Aaron. [Pharaoh] says to them, “I've sinned this time: YHVH is the righteous One. I and my people are the wicked ones.
note: Just like many ‘salvation prayers’, Pharaoh's prayer of repentance was ineffectual and half-hearted, and didn't save him one bit. What you DO is what counts. Born-again IS as born-again DOES.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 3:5 [Jonah's jaw drops, seeing the] people of Nineveh {Mosul-Iraq}, from the greatest [noble] to the smallest [peasant, constructively-evidence] their belief in Elohim's [message]. They call each other to stop eating. They [strip off their fancy and slutty clothes. They] don [thrown-together body-coverings made of nasty old] sacks.
note: To believe means to “build”. #539 'aman aw-man': to build up or support; to foster as a parent or nurse; If you truly believe something, you LIVE your belief.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 3:8 [Every] man and beast must be covered with sackcloth. Cry mightily to Elohim. Everyone turn from your evil way! [Repent] of the violence in your hands!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 5:32 —I didn't come [to earth] to call righteous [people] to repent. [I came to rescue] mess-ups, 😇.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 13:3 I tell you, ‘No.’ [Your sin-level does not directly control your type of death, 😇.] But, unless you repent, you all perish [forever].
note: The crowd bristles, ‘Who is this guy to judge us!?’

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:7 I tell you, 😇, that in the same way, heaven [floods] with more joy over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous people who need no repentance.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:27 The servant tells the older son, “Your [reckless] brother [finally] returned! Your Dad butchered the [prized] fatted cow, [to celebrate] getting your brother back safe and sound.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:32 We have to celebrate and rejoice. Because this dead brother of yours has come back to life. He was lost. But now he's found!’”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 2:38 Peter {Rock} answers the [crowd], “To get your mistake-filled [lives] fixed, every one of you must turn permanently from your sins, and stay immersed in the [sole sovereign] Name-Authority of YahShua (The Messiah). Do that, 😇. Then [YAH] gives you the free-gift of Spirit: Sacred Spirit.
note: To get the Holy Spirit, you must do much more than say a heartfelt prayer and get dunked underwater by a preacher. Repenting = permanently hating the sins you used to love. Baptism is total submersion in the authority of Christ. That means rejecting all claims over you made by worldly governments, employers and relationships.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leviticus 5:5 So, 😇, confess that you strayed by becoming guilty [of swearing oaths and/or touching nasty stuff].
note: Confess that you sinned by pledging allegiance, and by making contracts with pagans, and by eating bacon and shrimp.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 51:10 Elohim, [please] create a clean heart inside me. Make a new righteous [loyal, faithful] spirit within my [body].
note: See song: "Create In Me A Clean Heart".

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ZephaniYAH 3:9 [Then, 😇, Earth's remnant] people turn [to] pure language. [They] call YHVH's Name. [They] serve [YAH with] unanimous consent!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 13:5 I tell you, 😇: no! [Your morality doesn't determine how and when you'll die.] But unless you repent, you too all [eternally] perish.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:17 [One dark rainy night] this son comes to his senses, 😇. He says, “All my father's hired workers have more [food] than they can eat. So [why] am I [stuck] here starving to death [in a pig pen]!?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 19:8 ZacchaYah stands. He declares to Master [YahShua], “Look, Adoni: I'm gonna’ give half of all my possessions to poor [people]. And to all the victims of my extortion, I'll pay back 4 times [what I cheated them out of, as the Law of Moses requires].”
note: [Tax collectors] commonly rove & spoil the people; they have nothing in their mouths but the profit of the people; they are thieves. And if men reprove and go about to redress this robbery, the [tax-collectors] frame the protestor as a nation-destroying tax-evader.-Geneva Bible, 1602 edition, note on Luke 19:8

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Romans 6:2 How can we continue to live in error if we're dead to sin, 😇?
note: Touch a dead dog in a gutter and it stays there dead. Touch a sleeping sin, and it jumps up and bites your face off! If you're truly dead to sin, your eyes stay off porn, your hands stay off intoxicants, and your temper stays tempered. The real Holy Spirit kills your sin-cravings. Empty religion just puts your addictions into temporary relapse.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Apocalypsis (Revelation) 3:18 I counsel you, 😇, to buy from me ‘gold’ purified by fire. Then you can become rich. And [buy] ‘white clothing.’ Then you can get dressed. [Get fixed, so] that the shame of your naked [sin] never [again] appears. [Buy] ‘salve’ to anoint your ‘eyes’, so you can see.
note: Spend your time and money to understand and do what the scriptures teach.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genesis 50:18 Joseph's brothers fall down before his face, 😇. They cry, “Look, we're your servants.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 10:16 Then Pharaoh [sends his soldiers] rushing to summon Moses and Aaron. [Pharaoh says], “I've sinned against YHVH your Elohim, and against you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 4:4 But you [resisted temptation]. You stuck with YHVH your Elohim. That's why you're alive, every one of you, 😇, today.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 9:18 So I [run back up the mountain to get away from you sick perverts. There on the summit] I fall down before YHVH, like the 1st time. For 40 days and 40 nights, I neither eat food, nor drink water. [I fast to express remorse for] of all your sins and crimes you [Israelites] commit in the sight of YHVH, roiling up his anger.
note: Apparently, Moses fasted 3x for 40 days each = 120 days without food, 1 day for each year he lived. Try it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 119:40 Look! I beg you. Redesign my [broken] life. Fix me!
note: See awesome song, Fix You.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 2:10 Hide in [earth's] rock-caves, [puny humans]! Bury yourselves in dust for fear of YHVH's [furious] face. [Cower in terror] of his overwhelming power.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 6:13 —I can't leave 1 in 10 people [alive on earth]. The [survivors] just run back to burn [the planet] again! But like a pistachio-tree or an oak, whose trunk remains alive after its leaves fall off, holy-seed [people always] sprout from [society's] ashes, like [twigs sprout from a sawed-off] tree-trunk.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 19:21 The day [dawns] when Egypt comes to know YHVH. The Egyptians recognize YHVH's [universal sovereignty]. [So] they donate animals and wealth [to equip, feed, clothe, house and care for Hebrew priests and poor people]. The [Egyptians] keep the promises they make to YHVH.
note: #4503 Minchah (portion/donation) is scandalously mistranslated by the NRSV and the Message as "burnt offering".

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 52:1 Awake! Wake up, 😇! Clothe yourself with [YAH's] strength, [people of shining mount] Zion. Put on your beautiful garments, [you] sacred City-Of-Peace. Never again [let] unclean, unrefined [heathens] infiltrate your [holy] populace.
note: Literally: ‘un-trimmed’, not referring to penile circumcision, but to spiritual ‘heart-surgery’.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 64:6 We all [wallow in sin] like dirty [pigs], 😇. Even our [pretended] ‘righteous-acts’ are [toxic biohazards,] like filthy [menstrual] rags! We all rot like [dead] leaves. Our perversities sweep us away like hurricane[s].
note: False preachers misconstrue this verse to mean that doing good deeds is futile. The religiots claim that our human standard of righteousness is so low that, to 'God', taking care of sick people is as valueless as playing church bingo or watching TV. In fact, our Creator values and rewards good deeds. Faith without action is a rotting corpse.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 3:25 We lie down bled-pale [by embarrassment], covered in our confusion, because we keep sinning against YHVH our Elohim, 😇. We and our fathers, from our youth right to this day, keep [refusing] to obey the voice of YHVH our Elohim.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 31:19 —I repent of abandoning you, [my Creator]. You've [finally] taught me [how I should have lived]. So I beat my breast [in sorrow]. Ashamed, confused, I carry the disgrace of my [wasted] youth.’

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lamentations 3:40 Let's search and examine our ways, 😇. [Let's] turn back to YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezekiel 18:21 So, 😇, when a wicked [man] turns from all the sins he's committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does what's lawful and right, he definitely lives. He avoids [eternal] death.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezekiel 33:16 I never again mention to the ex-sinner any the sins he ever committed, 😇. [If] he persists in [doing] what's lawful and right, he lives, guaranteed!
note: Good actions (empowered by heaven) lead to continued life. No animal or human blood sacrifice required.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Daniel 6:18 Then the Emperor staggers, [wailing in grief,] back to his palace. He passes the night fasting. He refuses [players of] musical instruments. [Chefs and dancing women come] before him [to entertain and console him]. [In rage, he sends them away.] His sleep flees from him. [He tosses and turns all night, fearing he's killed YHVH's servant.]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 3:10 [YHVH] Elohim sees by the [Assyrians'] deeds that they're turning from their ruinous way(s). [So, 😇,] Elohim relents. He refrains from raining on the [Assyrians] the punishment he threatened.
note: Your acts show repentance. Holiness is more than mere thoughts and prayers. Faith is a full-contact body sport. Faith is dangerous. True salvation manifests in radically better behavior. “I show you my faith by my Ergon {Toil}.”-James 2:18

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Haggai (Dancer) 1:5 YHVH-Commander-Of-Angel-Armies says, “Put your heart [on the right] path, 😇.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 6:12 YahShua's 12 disciples hike out [across the country]. They herald, “People, repent!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 1:17 —In the spirit and power of [ancient prophet] EliYah, JAHn travels out ahead of Master [YahShua]. [JAHn] turns the hearts of [earth's] fathers to [their] children. [He directs] disobedient [people] to the wisdom of righteous [people]. [He] makes ready a [holy] nation prepared for Adonai [YHVH].”
note: Or ‘John goes out before the face of [YHVH] Adonai.’ ‘Fathers/children’ is quoting Malachi 4:6. ‘People prepared’ is referenced in 1 Peter 2:9.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 3:8 —😇, produce ‘fruit’ [that shows you've] turned away from your wrongs. Don’t keep bragging to yourselves, ‘We have our father Abraham {Father-Of-Billions}.’ For I tell you that [YHVH] the Eloah is able to raise up children for Abraham from these rocks!
note: Genetics have no role in salvation. ‘The flesh counts for nothing. Only [YAH's] Spirit gives life.’

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:1 [Many] tax collectors and ‘sinners’ all push in to hear YahShua. [They stampede, creating a fire & trampling hazard.]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:9 When she finds the 1 silver coin, she calls together her friends and neighbors, singing, ‘Rejoice with me! I found the coin I'd lost!’

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Romans 2:4 Do you, 😇, despise the riches of YHVH's goodness, forbearance and patience? [Do you] fail to grasp that YHVH [intends] His goodness to lead you to repent, [not to excuse your sin]?
note: For instance, do you preach that ‘grace’ gives you license to break the principles of the Mosaic law?

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Corinthians 7:10 For righteous sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation. [Contrition] leaves no regret, 😇. [In] contrast, the sorrow of the world-system brings death.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ephesians 4:22 [YahShua taught you, 😇,] to throw off your “old man's” evil nature, to [ditch] your former way of life, which is rotten to the core, addicted to deceitful lusts.
note: Your neural network has 'weed' systems growing through it, choking out your 'fruitful' impulses, enticing you to seek sugar, cars, fashion, fads, material riches, and all sorts of empty pleasures.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ephesians 4:23 [Let YAH's] spirit renew your mind, 😇.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Colossians 3:8 But now, 😇, cast off all sins: violent passions, rage, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
note: Cut out and throw away your bad temper, irritability, meanness, profanity, dirty talk.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ James 4:8 Draw near to [YHVH] the Eloah. Then He draws near to you, 😇. Clean your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded hypocrites!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bel and the Dragon 1:41 Emperor Cyrus {Sun} cries with a loud voice, “You are great, [YHVH] Adonai Elohim of DaniEl {El-Judges}! No other [Eloah] exists beside you!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genesis 20:16 [AbiMelech] continues,"Sarah I've given [your half-]brother [Abraham] 1000 (pieces of) silver [to compensate your family for the embarrassment I caused by stealing you and installing you in my harem. This money settles any claim against me in this matter.]”
note: Paraphrase.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genesis 35:2 So Jacob commands [everybody in] his family, and everyone else [in his caravan], “Throw away the strange [and priceless foreign] idol-gods you have with you! Purify yourselves. Change [out of those slutty stolen pagan] clothes!
note: Desperate times require desperate measures. This radical and costly repentance is the turning point, the moment when Jacob the endangered Cheater becomes Israel who will rule in heaven. If Jacob's clan had not gotten rid of their tainted wealth, they would have forfeited the Creator's protection and been slaughtered that day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genesis 44:16 Judah {Celebrated} cries, “How can we answer [you] my lord? What can we say? How can we clear ourselves? Elohim has exposed the perversity of your servants. Look lord, we [elders] and [our baby brother,] whom [your steward] caught with [your] chalice, we're [all your] slaves.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genesis 50:17 ‘Say this to Joseph {Increaser}: “Please at last forgive our crimes. [We] your brothers sinned against you. We wreaked ruin on you. Yet now, we beg you to forgive the violations committed by [us]. [We've become] the servants of [YHVH,] the Elohim of your father.” Joseph weeps, 😇, as his brothers repent to him.
note: This repentance is why true Israelites are the Creator's chosen people. Israelites, like all of us, are bad people who can be forgiven if we turn around and start going in the right direction.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 4:30 When you're in tribulation, and all the [prophesied calamities] have fallen on you, even in the end-times, if you, 😇, turn to YHVH your Elohim, and you [actively] obey his voice, [he'll rescue you].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joshua 7:6 So JAHshua rips his clothes. He falls to the earth on his face before the ark of YHVH. The elders of Israel [flank JAHshua]. [They all] throw dust on their heads. [They mourn.] Finally, 😇, the sun sets.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 19:19 Shimei [cries] to the king, “My lord, don't hold me guilty. Forgive what [I,] your servant wrongly did. [I'm sorry for screaming and cursing and throwing rocks & dust at you] as [you,] my lord and king, fled Jerusalem. [Please,] king, don't take to heart what I said.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Kings 21:27 [King] Ahab {Father-Friend} hears [EliJah's] words. [Ahab] immediately rips his clothes. He wraps sackcloth over his skin. He fasts. He sleeps in sacks [instead of his royal bed]. He walks about [quietly].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 22:11 The king hears the words of the book of [YAH's] Law. He [immediately] rips his clothes [in repentance].
note: Does YAH's word catapult you into immediate repentance? Why not?

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Chronicles 34:21 “[Gallop across the city to the prophetess.] Ask [her to ask] YHVH [to advise] me and the people left in [north] Israel and in Judaea. [The prophetess must tell us how to obey] the words of this bible [which the high priest just] found. YHVH [is justified in] pouring massive fire-rage out on us! Our forefathers refused to keep YHVH's word. They didn't do one thing [Moses] wrote in this scrolll [book]!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezra 9:3 Upon hearing this, I rip my [shirt] and my cloak. I tear out the hair of my head and my beard. [The onlookers stare at me,] stunned. [In shock,] I sit down [in the dirt].
note: Have you ever repented like that?

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezra 9:6 [I cry,] “[Oh YHVH] my Elohim, I'm ashamed! I blush to lift up my face to you, my Elohim. Our evils flood over our head[s]. [Humiliation drowns us.] Our guilt-shame grows up to the heavens.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Job 11:14 If evil [hides] in your hand, throw it far away. Don't let wickedness dwell in your homes.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 119:29 Suck out every false circuit in my [neural network]. Bend down to [power-wash my inner-piping with your] living-water-law.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 1:16 Wash clean, 😇! Get your evil deeds out of my sight! Stop doing evil!
note: Stop funding massacres in the name of patriotism.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 19:22 So YHVH's strike on Egypt turns out to be a healing blow, 😇, [like a spanking]. [Egyptians] return to YHVH. So he honors their prayers. He fixes them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 29:24 —[After I cleanse my people, millions of] stray-spirits find [my] life-map. The [surviving] grumblers [finally] get a clue [of how to live, 😇].”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 31:6 Return to [YHVH], you scandalously rebellious brats of Israel.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 49:12 Watch, 😇: streams [of believers] flock [to New Jerusalem] from the [four winds]. Look [into the future]. One [flock migrate] from the north, [another] from the western [sea]; others from the land of China [or Africa].
note: Lit. ‘Sinim’. Occurs in scripture only here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 58:9 😇, rid your [society] of the yoke [of oppression. Stop your] finger-pointing. Stop concocting exhausting [nonsense]. Then you'll call, and YHVH will answer. You'll cry, and YAH will respond, “Here I am.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezekiel 33:14 Conversely, sometimes I say to a lawbreaker, ‘You're bound for death.’ Then he turns from his sin, 😇. He does what's lawful and right. [So he ends up living.]
note: Most translations rely on the wooden ‘surely die, surely live’ rendering of ‘muwth muwth’ and ‘chayah chayah.’ Such translators make YHVH sound like a confused waffler who goes back on his word. The GNT conveys the proper sense of this verse.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Daniel 4:27 So, Emperor, accept my counsel: sever the chains of your sinful [past]. [Perform] righteous [actions]! Break with your crimes by showing mercy to the [wretched, miserable] poor. This may extend the length of your prosperity.”
note: Poor = Jewish captives [among others].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 2:1 As Jonah [sinks into] the fish's belly, he begs YHVH Elohim [for life].
note: Gadol Dag (giant fish) was an expression for death, representing Abbadon. Jonah was not walking around in a fish’s belly for 3 days. Jonah died, entered the ‘land of death,’ and about 72 hours later was resurrected, just as Jesus explained in Matt 12:40.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 3:6 Confessing their sins, this multitude of people get baptized by JAHn in the Jordan River.
note: Dunked, not just sprinkled.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 1:4 So, 😇, JAHn comes [to Israel]. He baptizes people in the wilderness. JAHn proclaims, “😇, Immerse [yourself in YAH's authority]. Turn away from your sins. Then YAH will forgive you!”
note: Being baptized means more than being dunked in water. It means: be fully swallowed up in YAH's Spirit and Authority. Do His will. Adore YAH's commands. Teach people to obey YAH. If you are not fully immersed in YAH's Spirit and His authority, it doesn't matter how many times you got dunked.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 7:29 All the people who listen to JAHn, [even] the tax-collectors, [humbly] let [that penniless crazy-haired prophet ritually] dunk their [heads under river-water]. [Thus the repenters publicly] acknowledge that the plan of [YHVH] the Eloah is right, [and the paid preachers are wrong, 😇].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 11:32 On the judgment [day,] the men of Nineveh rise up beside this generation. They condemn it, 😇. Because the [Ninevites] repented [upon hearing] Jonah herald [YAH's warning]. Yet look! [I,] a greater [prophet] than Jonah, [stand] here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 15:6 When you arrive [home], 😇, you call together your friends and neighbors, singing, ‘Rejoice with me. I just found my lost sheep!’

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 2:37 Now, 😇, when the [crowd] hears this, [remorse and fear] ‘sting inside their hearts.’ They ask Peter {Rock} and other apostles, “Men! brothers! What should we do?!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 22:16 So now why wait? Get up! Get baptized. Wash away your sins. Call on the name of Adonai [YHVH].”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Romans 6:13 So, 😇, NEVER offer your members [of your body] to sin as tools of unrighteousness. Instead, yield yourselves to [YHVH] the Eloah. [You believers] are beings alive from the dead. Offer your [body parts] to [YHVH] the Eloah as instruments of right action.
note: This applies to members of the Ekklesia as well as to physical body parts. So take care of your physical body as you would care for an irreplaceable tool: eat right, exercise, practice stress-reduction and pleasure-delay.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Romans 8:13 For if you live chasing [the desires] of your meat-body, you die [forever, 😇]. But if, through [the power of YAH's] Spirit, you assassinate your body's [craving] to commit wrong, you live [forever].
note: Your body craves at least some of these: junk food, drugs, alcohol, wrong sex, personal expenditures, insurance coverage, employment contracts, Social Security, private gain, personal possessions, government benefits, other people's stuff, fancy clothes, etc. No matter what sinner's prayer or rosary-chant you prayed, you eternally die unless you crucify your desire for these and other tempting worldly treats.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Baruch 1:13 And pray to [YHVH] Adonai our Elohim for us [Israelites]. For we have sinned against Adonai our Elohim. So to this day. Adonai's furious fire-rage has not turned from us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 8:25 So Pharaoh calls for Moses and for Aaron. [Pharaoh] says, “Go! Slaughter [animals to roast in a feast in honor] of your Elohim! [But do it] here in the land [of Egypt].”
note: Pharaoh attempts to modify a decree of YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 12:20 So SamuEl {Heard-By-El} says to the people, “Don't be afraid. [Even though] you've committed all this wickedness, if you go forward, never turning aside from following YHVH; [if you] serve YHVH with all your heart, [you'll live, 😇].
note: What you've done makes no difference. What you do from here on is all that counts.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 21:3 So [king] David says to the Gibeonite [elders], “What can I do for you? How can I cover [Saul's sin,] so you can [pray for] blessings on YHVH's heritage-people?”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 6:30 As the king hears the words of this [starving] woman, he rips his clothes. [Screaming in desperation,] he [staggers] further down the wall. The people look [up]. [Slack-jawed,] they see the [king], his skin covered in sackcloth.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 19:1 King HezekiYah {Strength-From-YAH} hears [Sennacherib's threats]. He rips his clothes. He wraps his body in sackcloth. He staggers into the temple of YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 22:19 —Your heart is tender. You humbled yourself before [Me] when you heard my verdict against this place, and against its inhabitants. [When you heard me] condemn them to desolation, you ripped your clothes. You wept before me. So I hear your [prayer],’ says YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Chronicles 6:31 —[Forgive us] so [we] can [live to] revere you, and walk in your ways, all the [days of our] lives, in the land you gave [our] ancestors.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Chronicles 15:4 —But when, in their trouble, [repentant people] turn to YHVH Elohim of Israel, [if they] seek him, they find him.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Chronicles 15:15 All the Judaeans rejoice at their promise. They [repeat it] 7 times with all their heart[s], seeking [YHVH] with their whole desire. So they find YHVH. He gives them peace all around.
note: YHVH doesn't want you to swear oaths to him. He just wants you to love and obey him.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezra 10:1 Ezra {Aid} prays. He confesses. Weeping, he casts himself down. [His face hits the dirt] in front of the temple of Elohim. [Streaming in] from [all the roads] of Israel, a huge congregation of Israel's men, women and children gather around Ezra. All the people weep extremely bitterly.
note: The problem with these women was NOT that they were foreign, but that they wouldn't repent and become Hebrews. They wanted to keep holding seances and orgies and blood-sacrifices and shooting heroin and breeding pigs, etc. They were not wives, they were problem girlfriends.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezra 10:19 The men [raise] their hands, [indicating their intent] to send away their sluts. The [men confess their] guilt. [They express remorse for] their treachery. They [each] donate a ram from [their] flocks [for a community feast].
note: This is not talking about divorce of valid marriages. This is about repenting of flagrant sexual and occult sins.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Esther 4:3 Meanwhile, in every province [of the Persian Empire, horsemen rush into cities. They nail up] the decree [bearing] the royal kill-order. [All] Jews [everywhere] burst into mourning. They fast. [Women] weep. [Men] wail. Many [Jewish people repent]. They lay [on the ground]. They don sacks. [They dump] ashes [on their heads].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 51:2 Wash all the evil out of me! Clean out my pervasive perversity.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 51:3 I see that I'm a rebellious [offender]. My crimes [haunt me] day & night.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 139:23 ELohim, penetrate [my soul with your laser-vision]. Diagnose my heart. Test me [in your refiner's fire]. Expose my thoughts.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 19:20 These [monuments] symbolize and witness that YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies inhabits the land of Egypt. So [eventually] the [Egyptians] cry for YHVH [to evict the Assyrian] oppressors. So, 😇, [YAH] sends [Egypt] a savior, a mighty defender. He rescues them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 26:18 Our [nation] constantly writhes in labor-pangs. Yet we birth only wind. We keep failing to bring deliverance to earth's [oppressed people]. We give no life to the world's [sufferers].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 32:11 You cocky ‘chicks’ come to shudder-in-horror! [You] quake-in-fear. You strip off [your fancy clothes]. You strap sack-cloth over your bare bodies. [You beg for mercy.]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 37:1 King HezekiYah {Strength-From-YAH} hears [his ambassador's report]. He immediately rips his clothes. He covers his body with sack-cloth. He [runs] into YHVH's temple.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 55:7 [Help] wicked [people] abandon their [dark] path[s, 😇. Help them] return to YHVH. [YAH] always overflows with pardon. [He showers] mercy on [repentant sinners].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 9:18 [Saints] are [dying] to rush into [our public spheres,] to lift up wailing [songs of repentance] over our [nation], until finally our eyes run down with tears, 'til our eyelids gush out waters [of remorse for our crimes].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 13:16 Give glory to YHVH your Elohim, before he [shrouds you in your own] darkness, before your feet stumble on the dark mountains. [Repent, 😇.] Or soon he turns the light you seek into the shadow of death. [He] smothers [villains] in gloom.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 15:19 YHVH replies, “When you repent [of your unbelief], I bring you back [to me]. You come to stand before my [face]. Draw forth what's precious from what's vile, 😇. Then you become my mouthpiece. [Wait for] the [sinners to] return to you. Never go back to [sinning with] them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 18:8 [But, 😇,] if that nation against whom I've pronounced [a death sentence] turns from their evil, I relent from the disaster I planned to wreak on them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezekiel 18:23 Adonai YHVH asks, “😇, do [you think] I get [any] pleasure at all when wicked [people] die? [No. I get pleasure] when [wicked people] turn from their [criminal] ways, and live!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Daniel 9:5 We [humans] keep sinning, doing wrong, acting wickedly, rebelling, running away from your precepts and your judgments.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Daniel 9:6 We fail to listen to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your Name to our kings, our princes, our fore-fathers and to all the people of the earth.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amos 5:6 Seek YHVH and live, 😇! [See what's coming: Punishment] breaks out like fire in the house of Joseph {Increaser}. [War] devours [his many brats]. An unquenchable inferno engulfs the [so-called] Beth-El {house-of-god}.
note: Judgement begins with the church. The Bible is primarily a book denouncing religious hypocrisy. “Seek” = “inquire of.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonah 3:7 The Emperor proclaims a [royal] decree. [His soldiers race their horses] through Nineveh. [They nail up posters reading,] “The Emperor and his nobles of Assyria command: Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything. Let them neither feed, nor drink water.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 18:13 And if the shepherd finds that 1 lost sheep, I tell you the truth, 😇, that shepherd gets happier about that 1 [rescued] sheep than about the 99 [sheep] that never strayed.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 1:16 —JAHn comes to turn many of the children of Israel [back] to [YHVH] Adonai their Eloah.

note: See the Prodigal Son in Dr. Seuss style.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 19:6 ZacchaYah scurries down from the treetop. He joyfully welcomes YahShua.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 3:19 So repent. Turn [from your errors]. Then [YHVH] wipes away your sins! Then the ‘seasons of refreshing’ pour out [like heavenly showers of Spirit-Life] from the presence of [YHVH] the Adonai.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 19:18 Soon many [new] believers come [to the fellowship]. They confess [their faith, 😇]. They publicly admit their evil practices.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Galatians 1:23 The Judaean believers had merely heard other believers say, “Paul, who persecuted us believers in times past, now heralds the faith he tried to destroy!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Apocalypsis (Revelation) 2:21 😇, I gave [false Judeo-Christian leader] ‘Jezebel {Baal-Seeker}’ time to repent of her fornication. But she refuses to repent.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Apocalypsis (Revelation) 3:19 I rebuke and chasten everyone I love, 😇. So live in zeal. [Exert yourselves.] Turn [away and run from your sins].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 21:1 My son, have you sinned? Sin no more. Ask pardon for your former sins.

Leviticus 26:40 But [life eventually returns, 😇,] if [my people] confess their sins and the sins of their forefathers — their treacherous offenses against me, their [lifestyles of] hostile action toward me.

Judges 10:16 Then the [Israelites] get rid of the alien gods & [non-Hebrew] leaders among them. They serve YHVH. So, 😇, [YAH's] heart breaks. [It hurts him to] see Israel [in] misery.

1st Samuel 15:27 SamuEl {Heard-By-El} turns around to go away. Immediately [king Saul] grabs the hem of [SamuEl's] cloak. It shreds.

1st Samuel 19:7 So JAHnathan calls David. He tells [David] everything [Saul promised]. Then JAHnathan brings David to Saul. David [resumes] serving in [Saul's] presence, like before [Saul went crazy].

1st Kings 8:33 —When [our] enemy strikes down your people (Israel) because they've sinned against you, when [we] turn back to you, and acknowledge your Name-Authority, and pray, and beg you in this temple, [forgive us].

2nd Kings 7:9 Then the [lepers] say to each other, “We're not doing right. Today is good-news day. Yet we've told [no one]. If we stay 'til morning light, [Israeli soldiers] will [come] and punish us. So come on. Let's go [back] to [north Israel's] royal palace. Let's report [Syria's surrender].”

2nd Chronicles 6:24 —And if enemies defeat your people Israel because they've sinned against you, [help the Israelis to] repent and acknowledge your Name-authority. [Help them] pray and plead before you in this temple.

2nd Chronicles 6:27 —Then hear from heaven. Forgive the sin[s] of your servants, of your people Israel. Then teach [us] the good way to walk. Send rain upon your land that you've awarded your people as [their] inheritance.

2nd Chronicles 12:12 Whenever [king] Rehoboam {Nation-Builder} humbles himself, the fire-rage of YHVH turns from him. Then things go well in Judaea. [YAH] refuses to totally destroy Rehoboam.

2nd Chronicles 34:33 So JosiYah {Founded-By-YAH} rids all abominations from the lands of the sons of Israel. He induces everyone present in Israel to serve [and] worship YHVH their Elohim. So, all [JosiYah's] days, the [Israelis] never stray from following YHVH, the Elohim of their fore-fathers.

Ezra 9:10 [Ezra lifts his eyes to heaven. He cries,] “So now, our Elohim, we can say [nothing in our own defense. You blessed us. Yet] we've [kept on] forsaking your commandments.

NehemiYAH 9:1 So, on the 24th day of the same [7th] month, [the last day of TentFest], the ‘sons of Israel’ assemble. They fast. They wear sack-clothes. They [throw] dirt on their bodies [to express humility, in remorse for their sins].

NehemiYAH 10:29 [We pledgers] join [our] kinsmen [and Judea's] nobles by entering into an [oath enforced by a] curse. [We promise] to walk in Elohim's law, (which [He] gave through Moses the servant of Elohim), to observe and obey all the commandments of YHVH our Adonai, plus his verdicts and his counsel.
note: It's good that they were repenting. But they should not have sworn this foolish oath, as we should not. They knew they wouldn't observe and do every commandment of YAH. To swear an oath is to pronounce a curse over yourself. Oath=debt=curse. Don't do it!

Job 8:21 [Repent] 'til [YHVH] fills your mouth with laughter. [Then] your [cracked] lips will trumpet blasts [of joy]!”

Job 33:27 [The penitent sicko] looks in the [faces of his fellow] mortals. He confesses, ‘I sinned. I perverted righteousness. [I've learned that crime] doesn't pay.

Psalms 32:5 Then I [woke up and] said, ‘YHVH, I'm admitting my sin to you. I'm unveiling my depravity. I'm confessing my rebellions.’ So you, [YHVH], lifted away my perverse, offensive [addictions]. [Pause music.]

Psalms 32:6 So every kind-hearted [human] should immediately pray to meet you, [YHVH,] so that [you'll lift them] out of the reach of [life's] rising flood-waters.

Psalms 38:18 I confess my depravity. I worry myself sick over my sins.

Psalms 51:4 I sinned against you more than [I sinned against the hero I murdered and against his beloved wife whom I seduced and impregnated]. I wreaked atrocities beneath your watching eyes. Whatever sentence you give me is justified. You're in the clear to condemn me [to death].

Psalms 51:7 Purge me. Disinfect me [like a priest cleans rotten, moldy houses and lepers with bitter, antimicrobial] plant-extracts. Wash my [heart] 'til I'm [spiritually] whiter than snow.
note: lit: hyssop. The actual disinfecting plant is unidentified.

Psalms 51:14 Elohim, snatch me [up]! [I'm drowning] in bloodguilt. Elohim, be my savior. [Then] my tongue will shout-sing so loud [that the whole world will hear] about your righteousness.

Psalms 69:5 O Elohim, you know my foolishness. My guilty acts lie exposed [before your eyes].

Psalms 106:6 We [repenters admit] we keep sinning, [just] like our fore-fathers. We commit evil. We spread wickedness.

Psalms 107:14 [YAH] ushers [us repenters] out of darkness. [He lifts us above] the shadow of death, 😇. He rips away [our] chains.

Psalms 119:59 I'm mending my ways. I'm turning my feet back to your roadmap [for life].

Proverbs 16:6 Mercy and truth purge evil. Awe of YHVH drives human[s] [away] from destruction.

IsaiYAH 1:10 Hear the word of YHVH, you rulers of “Sodom". Give your ear to the law of Elohim, you people of “Gomorrah.”

IsaiYAH 17:7 In the [coming judgment] day, man [finally] looks to his Maker. [Humanity's] eyes show respect to [YHVH,] the Holy One of Israel.

IsaiYAH 18:7 Finally those [previously hateful Ethiopians] bring present[s ~250km north] to Mount Zion. [Africans honor] the name of YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies. [YAH makes Hebrews of] those tall, stretched-out [warriors], peeled [in the stubborn sun], historical terrorists who compass and trample [north Africa's] river swamps.
note: From roughly the time of this prophecy until crazy general Haile Selassie pretended to be Christ in the 20th century, Ethiopia was home to the longest running continuous Judeo-Christian society in history. Even today's pot-smoking Rastafarians retain some Judeo-Christian traits, such as open worship of Yahweh, kosher diet, natural medicine, distinctive dress, and rejection of the NWO "Babylon System".

IsaiYAH 22:12 The day [before Jerusalem's destruction], YHVH-Adonai-over-armies calls [the Jews] to [repent]: to weep, to mourn, to [shave their heads and beards] bald, to wear sacks [instead of clothes].

JeremiYAH 4:8 So wrap yourselves in sackcloth. Lament and howl for YHVH's fierce anger to turn away from us, 😇.

JeremiYAH 6:26 Oh my daughter-populace, wrap your body in sackcloth. Wallow in ashes, 😇. Mourn in terribly bitter lamentation, like [you would if] your only son [died]. The spoiler rushes to [pounce] on us!

JeremiYAH 8:4 YHVH says, “Pose this question to the [Judeans]: ‘When someone falls down, doesn't he get back up, 😇? If someone misses the road, doesn't he turn back?’

JeremiYAH 9:20 So hear the word of YHVH, you women. Let your ear receive the word of his mouth. Teach your daughters to wail [in repentance]. Every woman, [gather] your neighbor[s]. [Together] sing laments [for your nation's sins].

JeremiYAH 14:20 Oh YHVH, we acknowledge our wrongs, and the unfairness of our fore-fathers. We [Judeo-Christians] have committed treason against You [for centuries].

JeremiYAH 25:5 [True prophets] keep quoting [YAH's warnings]: “Every one of you turn back from your evil way[s]. [Abandon] your ruinous actions. Then [you'll] live in the land that YHVH awards to you and to your fathers for eons and ages.

JeremiYAH 31:18 I constantly hear Ephraim {North-Israel} bemoaning his [plight]: ‘You chastise me. So I repent! You [train me] like [I'm] a young bull bucking his [farmer's] yoke. Turn back to me. I'll turn back to you. You, YHVH, are my Sovereign.

JeremiYAH 31:21 “Set up roadsigns. Erect guideposts. Keep your mind on the highway that [leads you] back [home]. Turn [from destruction], virgin Israeli [daughter-populace]. Return to these, your [abandoned] cities.
note: Biblical laws are signposts marking the path to life.

JeremiYAH 36:7 —Maybe they'll fall on their [knees] to beg before YHVH's face. [Maybe] they'll each turn from their catastrophic path[s], to avoid the world-twisting, fire-snorting [purge] YHVH has decreed against this horde [of criminals].”

JeremiYAH 44:4 So I send you all my servants the prophets. I rise early [every day] to send them. [The prophets] say, ‘Oh, stop committing these horrible [crimes] that [make me your] enemy!’

Lamentations 1:18 “YHVH is in the right. I confess, 😇. I rebelled against his commandment[s]. Hear [my cry], please, all you people. Look [with compassion on] my sorrow. [The pagans] haul my virgin [girls] and my young men into slavery!

Lamentations 2:10 The elders of [Mount] Zion's daughter-city sit on the ground in [abject] silence, 😇. They throw dust over their [aging] heads. They wrap their [flesh] with sackcloth. The virgins of Jerusalem hang their heads down to the ground.

Ezekiel 6:9 Your escaped [survivors] eventually remember me among the nations where [invaders] drag them in chains. [The cheaters realize that] their whore-hearts have broken my [heart]. They left me to [follow] their [lustful] eyes. [The fakers] prostituted themselves to their idol-gods. The [traitors] come to loathe themselves for the evils they commit, their disgusting [habits].

Ezekiel 14:11 So eventually the house of Israel stops drifting astray from me, 😇. They stop polluting [themselves] with all their treacherous [crimes]. Again they become my people, and I their Elohim {Sovereign},” foretells Adonai YHVH.

Ezekiel 18:30 So Adonai YHVH concludes, “I'm judging you, house of Israel. Every one [of you gets] what his life-path merits, 😇. Repent. Turn yourselves from all your [acts of] betrayal. Then evil won't be your ruin.

Ezekiel 20:43 And there you recall your [former] way-of-life. You [regret taking] all the actions that defiled you. You eye your face[s] in the [mirror] with disgust. [You lament] all the ruin you wreaked.

Ezekiel 33:11 Say to the [Israelis], ‘As I live,’ Adonai YHVH says, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of wicked [beings]. I love it when a criminal turns from his [evil] way and lives. [So] turn! Spin off your catastrophic path! Why would you want to die, family of Israel?’

Ezekiel 33:19 Likewise, when a destroyer turns from his violating to do what's lawful and kind, he [buys] continued life.

Jah-El 2:12 So now [you've seen earth's future, 😇. You've been fairly warned. So] the oracle of YHVH [commands,] “Return to me with all of your heart. Fast. Weep. Mourn.”

Jah-El 2:13 Don't just tear your clothes [or parrot some traditional prayer] to show how sorry you are, 😇. Let [YAH's spirit] break your [stony] hearts. Turn back to YHVH your Elohim. YAH [overflows with] gracious [compassionate] mercy. YAH is slow to anger. YAH's [heart] abounds with kindness. He's always ready to cancel catastrophe.
note: Change your life, not just your clothes.

ZechariYAH 8:23 YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies predicts: “Watch, 😇! In coming days, [you see] 10 men out of each nation's language-groups rush up and grab and cling to the hem of one Jewish man, begging, ‘We're going with you! We hear Elohim sticks with you!’”
note: This predicts the Hebrew-Roots movement.

Malachi 3:11 [When you religious leaders stop lying and extorting,] I forbid the devourer from [coming] to destroy the fruit of your soil. [Likewise,] in your fields, your vine stops aborting her fruit before [harvest] season,” offers YHVH-commander-of-armies.

Mark 1:5 To [meet] JAHn, [hordes] travel out from Jerusalem and from the whole land of Judaea. The [penitents] confess their sins. JAHn baptizes them in the Jordan River.

Luke 3:3 So JAHn [hikes] throughout the whole countryside around the Jordan River, heralding: “[Permanently] turn away [from your sins, 😇]! Get immersed [in YAH's authority]. Then [YAH] will free you from [the slave-jail] your mistakes [have built around you].”
note: The baptism that matters is your becoming subject only to YAH. Water baptism is a symbolic ritual indicating your intent to become solely devoted to YAH.

Acts 2:40 Then with many other words Peter {Rock} testifies and urges the crowd, saying, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation, 😇!”

Acts 16:33 Right then, in the night, the jailer takes Paul and Silas {Woodsman} [to the water-trough]. He washes their cut, [torn, ragged skin]. Then immediately [the disciples] baptize the jailer and all his [family], 😇.

Apocalypsis (Revelation) 3:3 So remember the [truths] you heard and believed [when your faith was new, 😇]. Hold firm. Turn. [Run] away [from your sins]. If you fail to watch, I'll come upon you like a thief. You won't know [at] what hour I'll rush upon you.

Judith 4:10 The Israelite men, their wives and their children, and every foreigner and hired [hand], and [all their] indentured servants, wrap sackcloth around their [waists]. [They even wrap] and their animals [with sackcloth]!

Prayer of AzariYAH 1:16 But please accept our repentant heart[s] and humble spirit[s].

Numbers (Journeys) 5:7 So, [to keep his own sanity], the sinner must confess each sin he commits, 😇. And he must pay back everything he [damaged or stole], plus 20% [of its value,] and give it to [whatever human] he victimized.

Numbers (Journeys) 15:26 [When] I see you [all repenting of] ignorant [sins], [I] forgive the entire population of the nation of Israel, along with the foreigner[s] staying among [you].

Deuteronomy 30:1 [Moses continues,] “In the future, all these prophesies come to [flood] over you, 😇: the blessing[s] and [then] the curses I've set before you. Then you call them to mind, [as you wail in anguish and torture, slaving,] trapped in the various beast-nations where YHVH your Elohim drives you.

1st Samuel 6:3 The [priests and soothsayers] answer, “If you send away the ark of the Elohim of Israel, don't send it by itself. Rather, send [YAH] some kind of guilt-gift. Then [YAH] will heal you. Then you'll know why His power-fist is [smacking] you.”

1st Samuel 12:10 So [your fore-fathers] cry to YHVH. They beg, ‘We've sinned! We've forsaken YHVH. We've served Baalim {Sovereigns} and Ashtaroth {Easter-Demons}. Still, rescue us now from the power-fist of our enemies. Then we'll serve You.’

1st Samuel 15:31 So SamuEl {Heard-By-El} turns. [He goes] back [to the gathering] with [king] Saul. There Saul worships YHVH.

1st Samuel 26:21 Then Saul confesses, “I've sinned. Come home, my son David. I'll never again do you harm. Today you've seen me, [your would-be-murderer,] as precious. Look. I've [been] a fool. I keep messing up horribly.”
note: Demon-possessed people often experience moments of clarity and remorse. But usually the evil spirit returns with vengeance.

2nd Samuel 12:13 [King] David [cries] to Nathan {Gift}, “I've sinned against YHVH.” Nathan answers David, “[You're repenting. So] YHVH has taken away your sin-guilt. You won't die.
note: David is already forgiven the instant he truly repents. You can repent of murder, even murderous adultery, and go to heaven. But the mess remains.

2nd Samuel 19:18 These [1000 Benjamites] cross the river on a ferry boat. They offer to carry king [David's] household [back] across, and to do whatever [else the king] sees fit. As these [repenters] land on [the East bank] of the Jordan [river,] Shimei {Famous} (the son of Gera {Grain}) falls down before king [David].

2nd Samuel 19:20 [I,] your servant, acknowledge that I sinned. So see, [that's why] I rushed here today: to be the first [man] from [both tribes] of Joseph {Increaser} to go down to meet [you,] my lord, the king.”

2nd Samuel 19:24 Then [dead king] Saul's grandson Mephibosheth {He-Blows-Away-Shame} [hobbles east] downhill from Jerusalem to meet king [David. Mephibosheth looks like] he's neither cared for his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day king [David] fled until this, the day of [David's] peaceful return.

1st Kings 21:29 [YAH] says [to EliJah], “See how [king] Ahab {Father-Friend} humbles himself before me? Since he humbles himself before me, I won't bring [holy] revenge during his lifespan. But [during] his son's [reign], I'll [rain] payback on his [dreadful] dynasty.”

2nd Chronicles 12:7 YHVH sees the [rulers] kneeling [in prayer]. So the word of YHVH comes [alive] in ShemaiYah {YAH-Hears}. [YAH] says, “[Judaea's leaders] humbled themselves. So I won't ruin them. Instead I'll grant them some deliverance. Shishak's hand will not pour out my fire-rage upon Jerusalem.

2nd Chronicles 15:8 [King] Asa hears these words prophesied by Oded {Testifier} the prophet. [So] Asa immediately takes courage. [He risks assassination by] getting rid of the abominable demon-idols from all the territories of the [tribes of] Judah and Benjamin, and from the cities he'd captured in the Ephraim {Double-Fruit} Hills. Then Asa refurbishes the altar of YHVH that faces the porch [in] YHVH's [temple].

2nd Chronicles 15:9 North Israeli [ex-rebels] (from [the tribes of] Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon) see that YHVH ([Asa's] Elohim) sticks with [Asa]. So [north Israelis] defect [south] to [Asa] in droves. [Asa] gathers these [defectors] with all [the southern tribes:] Judah and Benjamin.

2nd Chronicles 30:6 So, 😇, the [feast-proclamation] messengers [ride from Jerusalem. They fan out in every direction. They each] carry [copies of] the letters (from king Hezekiah and [Judea's other] leaders). The [messengers] journey throughout all [of North] Israel and Judea. They echo the command of king [Hezekiah]: “You children of Israel, turn back to YHVH, [the] Elohim of Abraham {Father-Of-Billions}, Isaac {Laughter} and [Jacob aka] Israel. Then [YAH] will come back to [help] the remaining [few] of you who've escaped out of the fist of the kings of Assyria.

2nd Chronicles 33:15 And [king Manasseh] rids [Judea] of foreign gods. [He rips] the Easter-idol out of YHVH's temple. [He smashes] all the idol-altars he'd built on YHVH's temple mount and [throughout] Jerusalem. He dumps them outside the city, 😇.

Ezra 9:15 —O YHVH Elohim of Israel, you are righteous. To this day [you've allowed us to] live escaped [from our Persian oppressors. Please] look [on us with compassion]. We're [on our faces] before your [judgment throne. We admit] our treachery. We can't stand before you. [We've done too much evil.]”
note: Ezra is confessing sins he didn't even commit. That's leadership.

Ezra 10:9 So 3 days [later], on the 20th day of the 9th month [of that year], all the men of Judah {Celebrated} and Benjamin {Right-Hand-Son} gather themselves together in Jerusalem. All the people sit in the street of the temple of Elohim. They tremble [in terror of being punished for fornicating with pagan sluts]. Their [teeth chatter in] the torrential rain.

Ezra 10:14 So [for now] let our congregation's [most mature] leaders stay [here in Jerusalem]. And have all the men who shacked up with profane, [unrepentant] sluts in our cities come [here] at prearranged times. [Have the fornicators] bring the elders and judges of [their] cities, [to help the women either convert to Hebraism, or prepare to leave Hebrew society]. We'll keep [counseling, and if necessary, splitting these couples], until the fierce fury of our ELohim over this debacle turns away from us.”

Job 11:15 Then you'll lift up your spotless face. Yes, [once you repent,] you'll [thrive,] steadfast and fearless.

Job 11:16 [Repent.] Then you'll forget your misery. You'll remember it [dimly,] like waters flown away.

Psalms 32:10 Many sorrows [rain] on wicked [people], 😇. But when [you] run-for-refuge in YHVH, mercy completely surrounds [you].

Psalms 39:8 Rescue me from all my rebellions. Don't make me the laughing-stock of foolish [people].

Psalms 69:6 Adonai YHVH, [commander of angel] armies, [we oppressed believers] hold together [only by grasping our thin rope of hope] in you. Elohim of Israel, don't let my [sins] put [my fellow believers] to shame. Don't let your seekers get wounded [to pay for my crimes].

Psalms 69:11 I wrap my body in sackcloth [to show my humble repentance]. This makes me the [city's most pathetic] joke.

Psalms 139:24 Expose any idolatrous habits in me, [YAH]. Lead me up the road to forever.

IsaiYAH 19:18 The day comes when five [previously pagan] cities in the land of Egypt speak the [Hebrew] language of Canaan. The [Egyptians] swear [oaths] to [obey] YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies! One [city, Heliopolis,] comes to be called, "The City Of Righteousness".
note: The original "city of righteousness" (ha-zedek) was changed by scribes to "cheres" (sun), then to "heres" (destruction). Hence the nonsensical reading in the bookstore translations. 5 cities ⩰ Leontopolis, Daphne, Migdol, Memphis, Heliopolis.

IsaiYAH 25:3 So eventually [even] superpowers come to glorify you. The cities of the mighty beast-nations come to revere you.

IsaiYAH 44:5 One [convert] will say, “I belong to YHVH.” Another will call himself by the name of “Jacob.” Another will mark “YHVH” on his hand. Another will append the [word] “Israel” to his name.
note: This prophecy is constantly fulfilled every day on earth. In every country, biblical names are wildly popular. How many people are named after 4000 year old Grecians, or Chinamen, or Africans, or Native Americans, or Europeans? Almost no one. Writing ‘YHVH’ on your hand is the opposite of placing the "mark of the beast" on or in your hand.

JeremiYAH 3:22 “Return, you backsliding kids. I'll cure you of recidivism, 😇.” [So you should respond,] “Look, [YAH]! We're coming [back] to you. You're YHVH, our [sole] Sovereign.

JeremiYAH 4:1 YHVH pleads, “Oh Israel, choose to turn back [from the brink of disaster]. Come back to me, 😇. Rid your abominations from my sight. Stop wandering [away from me].”

JeremiYAH 4:14 Oh Jerusalem, wash all ciminality out of your heart[s], so you can be saved. How long will you harbor vain schemes inside your [mind, 😇]?

JeremiYAH 14:7 O YHVH, our crimes testify against us [hypocrites]. Still, [save us] to protect your reputation. [Pardon] our incessant backsliding. [We admit] that we [constantly] sin against you.

JeremiYAH 18:11 So now go, [Jeremiah]. Speak to the men of Judea, including the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Say, YHVH decrees: ‘Watch me architect your coming catastrophe. I devise devices to fight your [evil]. Every one of you must rush to return from your ruinous way[s]. Fix all your life-paths. Correct your actions.’”

JeremiYAH 26:3 If the [worshipers] listen, so that every man turns back from his damaging path[s], then I'll revert the ruin I intend to send on them. [I must] stop the [religionists'] catastrophic actions [by any means necessary].

JeremiYAH 26:13 —So hurry! Fix your ways-of life! Amend your actions. Obey the voice of YHVH your Elohim. Then YHVH will relent from the cataclysm[s] he foretells you [will suffer].

JeremiYAH 41:5 [IshmaEl sees] 80 [Israeli] men arriving (from Shechem {Neck}, Shiloh {Tranquil} and Samaria) with their beards shaved [in mourning], their clothing ripped. Gashes mar their bodies. These [believers] carry grain-offerings and incense [south] on their way to worship at the Jerusalem Temple.

Ezekiel 14:6 So tell the house of Israel, “Adonai YHVH says, ‘Repent! Turn yourselves [away] from your idols. Spin your faces away from all your disgusting-deeds.

Ezekiel 16:63 You [Israel] eventually go white-as-a-sheet, recalling your crimes. [You grow] so repentant that you refuse to ever again open your mouth [in arrogance]. Then I cover over all the [damage] you've done,” foretells Adonai YHVH.
note: Repentance precedes restoration.

Ezekiel 18:27 Conversely, 😇, when the villain turns away from his wicked acts, and does what's lawful and right, he saves his soul. He lives [beyond death].

Ezekiel 18:31 Cast away [your] rebellious sins, 😇. Make yourself a new heart, a new spirit. Why die, family of Israel?

Ezekiel 33:15 When a [greedy lender] restores the pledged [property he held,] and gives back what he robbed, [and] walks in the statutes of life, avoiding unfair actions, he lives and thrives. He escapes death.

Hosea 14:1 You, 😇, who [wish to] rule with Elohim, return to YHVH your Elohim {Sovereign}! Stop stumbling in depravity!

ZechariYAH 8:21 [See] the inhabitants of one city sprint to other [cities], exclaiming, ‘Let's run and pray before YHVH's face! [Let's] seek YHVH, the King-Of-All-Beings!’ [Envision whole cities shouting,] ‘I'll go!’ ‘Me too!’

Malachi 3:18 Return, 😇. See the difference between the righteous and the ruiners, between [jewels] who serve [YHVH] Elohim, and [infidels] who fail to serve Elohim.”

Luke 3:10 The people ask JAHn [the Immerser], “So what should we do?”

Acts 9:26 Saul travels to Jerusalem. He tries to join [YahShua's] disciples [there]. But they all shake in terror of him, 😇! They think he's lying about being a disciple [of YahShua].

Acts 13:24 Before YahShua arrives, JAHn heralds the ‘baptism of repentance’ to all the people of Israel.

Acts 19:4 Paul replies, “JAHn [the baptizer] authentically immersed [people] with the baptism of repentance. Plus, [John] told people they should entrust [their lives] to YahShua, [the Messiah] who would soon arrive [to give spirit-immersion. It's way beyond water-baptism!]

Galatians 1:24 So, 😇, the [Judaean Christians] praised [YHVH] the Eloah because I, [their enemy, switched to their side].

1 Maccabees 3:47 That day, the Israelites fast. They don sackcloth. They cast ashes upon their heads, and tear their clothes.

Genesis 13:1 So Abram {High-Father} emigrates from Egypt, 😇. With his wife, [and] Lot, and everything and everyone he has, [Abram] caravans up [north] into southern [Judaea, aka the Negev].
note: Leaving Egypt ALWAYS symbolizes going UP. Egypt = bad. Leaving Egypt = good. "Spiritual Egypt" is the worldly culture that surrounds you right now. (Just look at the pyramid on the back of a U.S. dollar bill.) If you leave ‘Egypt,’ you rise. If you stay in ‘Egypt,’ you sink into the devil's quicksand.

Exodus 16:9 [Then] Moses instructs Aaron, “Announce to the whole community of Israel, ‘Come [repent] in the presence of YHVH. For He hears your [insulting] slander.’”

Exodus 32:30 The next day, Moses [comes to his senses. He shouts] to the people, “You've sinned, [committing] a great crime. So now I'll [hike back] up to YHVH. Perhaps I can cover over your sin.”

Leviticus 4:28 When the [commoner's] sin comes to his knowledge, then he brings [to the Ekklesia] his donation: a flawless female goat-kid, to [express remorse for] his sin he committed.

Leviticus 5:6 Then, 😇, to [express remorse for] for the sin you committed, bring to [the priests of] YHVH your “trespass donation” of a female flock-animal, [that is,] a lamb or a goat-kid, as a repentance-gift. The priest prepares [the meat and feeds it to poor people]. This [kind deed in a sense] covers over your sin.

Leviticus 16:6 Next, Aaron [the priest] presents his young bull as a confession-gift [in repentance for] his [own sins. He prays for YHVH to] cover himself and his clan.
note: Improve yourself first. Then you can improve others.

Leviticus 26:41 [I relent after sinners acknowledge that it was their atrocities that forced me to] live in opposition to them—[that their offenses] threw them into the lands of their enemies. [I relent] when their [fatty, clogged] hearts become humble, when they pay the penalty for their treachery and rebellion.
note: Literally: uncircumcised hearts

Numbers (Journeys) 15:22 [I expect that you won't always] live-out all these commandments, which [I,] YHVH [have] spoken to Moses. [So, 😇, act on the following principles] when you err:
note: When you sin, confess it, then give up something valuable to help others. This will cure your mental and emotional diseases.

Numbers (Journeys) 15:24 When the community ignorantly commits a sin without [malice] aforethought, the whole community contributes [to the priests] 1 young bull calf as an ascension-gift. [Cook the meat so masterfully that it] yields a taste so delicious it [brings honor to] YHVH. [Serve the meat] with [its associated] grain-donation, and [its associated] drink-contribution, according to the rules [I previously stated]. Plus [cook] one goat-kid as a guilt-gift.
note: When you sin, donate grade-A pure food and drinks to feed priests and poor saints.

Numbers (Journeys) 15:25 Then the priest [prays for YHVH to] cover [the sins of] the whole population of the nation of Israel. Then the [people] present to [YAH's priests] their donation of a sacred-meal roasted by fire before YHVH, along with their guilt-gift [to] YHVH. [Thus they ask forgiveness for] their ignorance. So [YAH] forgives them, because [they sinned] unknowingly.
note: This misnomered ‘sacrifice’ is fed to the people at a sacred feast. It is not burned up.

Numbers (Journeys) 15:27 So when you, 😇, sin through ignorance, present [to YHVH's workers] a 1-year-old female goat as a guilt-gift.
note: A 1-year-old female goat costs one or two day's wages, depending on the goat's pedigree.

Numbers (Journeys) 22:34 So Balaam {Loner} pleads to the angel of YHVH, “I've sinned! I didn't know you were standing in the road blocking me! So now, if [my going to Moab] displeases you, I'll [turn around northeast] and go [back home].”

Deuteronomy 30:2 [Then eventually] you [Israelites] return to YHVH your Elohim. You obey his voice. You [finally] execute every [law] I command you today. You and your children [return to serve YAH] with all your heart, and with all your being.

Deuteronomy 30:8 You come back, 😇. [You] obey the voice of YHVH. [You] live all His commandments [as] I instruct you today.

Joshua 7:19 So JAHshua says to Achan {Trouble-Maker}, “My son, please, give glory to YHVH Elohim of Israel. Make [your] confession to him. Tell me now what you've done. Don't hide the [facts] from me.”

Joshua 7:20 Achan {Trouble-Maker} [trembles like a leaf in the wind. He wets his pants, 😇!] He [whispers his] confession to JAHshua: “Yes, I sinned against YHVH Elohim of Israel. Here's exactly what I did:

1st Samuel 6:7 So quickly build a new cart. Then take two milk cows who have never borne a yoke. Tie the cows to the cart. Then put their calves in a shed.

1st Samuel 6:8 Then take the ark of YHVH. Set it on the cart. In a box by the side [of the ark] put the gold treasures you're sending [YAH] as a guilt-offering. Then send [the cart] away. Let it go [off drawn only by the cows, to avoid losing any more humans].

1st Samuel 6:16 The five Philistine [war] lords [stand on a hill to the west. They watch the Israelis celebrate the recovery of the ark.] Then, that day, the [smiling warlords ride] back [east] to Ekron {Uprooter}.

1st Samuel 6:17 The [5] golden tumor-sculptures the Philistines send as confession-offerings to YHVH [represent 5 plague-stricken cities]: Ashdod {Ravager-City}, Gaza {Strength}, Ashkelon {Market}, Gath {Wine-Press} and Ekron {Uprooter}.

1st Samuel 6:18 Likewise, the [5] golden mice represent those 5 [major] Philistine city-regions, domains of [each of] the five [war] lords. [The gifts express the unified repentance of everyone in Palestine's] fortified cities and country villages, in all the territory stretching [east] to that great ‘stone of Abel’ where [the cows] set down the ark of YHVH. That stone remains to this day in the field of JAHshua, the Beth-shemite.

1st Samuel 7:5 So [the prophet] SamuEl {Heard-By-El} says, “Gather all Israel's [leaders] to Mizpah {Watch-Tower}. [There] I'll pray to YHVH for you.”
note: Unlikely that Samuel spoke to several million people. A governing Ecclesia meeting is considered complete if all family-heads are present. Modern voting is a scam that relies on rigged counting machines. Universal suffrage is a joke.

1st Samuel 7:6 So [the heads of Israel's families] assemble together at Mizpah {Watch-Tower}. [There they] draw water. [They] pour it out [in a baptism-like ritual] in the presence of YHVH. They fast [all] day. They confess, “We've sinned against YHVH.” Then, there at {Watch-Tower}, SamuEl {Heard-By-El} guides the ‘sons of Israel.’

1st Samuel 14:21 Even the Hebrews who had earlier defected from the surrounding countryside, [fleeing] into the Philistine war-camp—even they turn to [rejoin] the Israelites [led] by [king] Saul and [prince] JAHnathan.

1st Samuel 15:30 Then [Saul] confesses, “I've sinned! But honor me now, please, before the elders of my people, and before Israel. Come back [to the camp] with me, so I can worship YHVH your Elohim.”

1st Samuel 19:6 So [king] Saul [temporarily] listens to the voice of [prince] JAHnathan. Saul swears, “As YHVH lives, [I] won't murder [David].”

2nd Samuel 19:16 Gera's brat, Shimei {Famous}, that [cursing, rock-throwing] Benjamite from Bahurim {Choice-Youth}, runs down [the west-bank hill toward the Jordan river]. He rushes with the men of Judea to meet king David.

1st Kings 8:34 —In heaven, hear [our confession]. Forgive the sin[s] of your people Israel. Repatriate [our exiles] back to the land you gave [our] fore-fathers.

1st Kings 8:36 —[Up] in heaven, hear [our repentance]. Forgive the sin[s] of [us,] your servants, your people (Israel). Teach [us] the good Way [in which we] should walk. Send rain upon [this,] your land [which] you've given to your people as an inheritance.

1st Kings 8:47 —If, in the land where [we] get carried away as slaves, [we] reconsider [our lives,] and repent, and plead to you, confessing, “We've sinned; we committed perverse acts; we wreaked wickedness,” [please rescue us].
note: Our job is to come to our senses, to call ourselves to our right minds.

1st Chronicles 13:3 —And let's bring the Ark of [the covenant of] our Elohim back to us. We haven't prayed [to YAH] in front of [the ark] since Saul [took reign].”

2nd Chronicles 12:6 Immediately Israel's leaders and king [Rehoboam] humble themselves. They moan, “YHVH is right!”

2nd Chronicles 20:3 [King] JAHoshaphat {JAH's-Judgment} [trembles in] fear. So he sets himself to seek YHVH. He proclaims a fast throughout all Judaea.
note: Fasting and praying, not military action, is the true believer's response to aggression.

2nd Chronicles 23:16 Then [high priest] YAHoyada {YAH-Knows} makes a covenant between himself, all the people, and the boy-king. [They promise to] be YHVH's people.
note: YAH doesn't want you to PROMISE to do right. He wants you to DO right. Talk is cheap.

2nd Chronicles 29:10 —Now it's in my heart to make a covenant with YHVH Elohim of Israel, so his fierce fire-rage can turn away from us.

2nd Chronicles 32:26 Finally [king] HezekiYah {Strength-From-YAH} humbles himself, 😇. [He erases] the arrogance from his heart. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem [repent] too. So [YAH] lifts his fire-rage during [king] HezekiYah's lifetime.

2nd Chronicles 33:12 Then, in his affliction, [king Manasseh] begs YHVH his Elohim [for mercy, 😇]. He deeply abases himself before the Elohim of his forefathers.

Ezra 1:7 [The delegates of] Emperor Cyrus {Sun} haul out the utensils belonging to YHVH's temple, (vessels Nebuchadnezzar had carted out of Jerusalem, then stashed in the temple of his demon-god).

Ezra 9:4 Around me pack all the people [in Jerusalem] who tremble at the words of [YHVH] the Elohim of Israel. [On their knees, faces in the dust, they pray, begging YAH not to punish the nation for] the [treacherous] defection of these [recently-freed slut-mongering] exiles. [We] sit stunned until the [time we priests would normally eat our] evening [meal].

Ezra 10:5 So Ezra {Aid} gets up [off the ground]. He leads the chief priests, the Levites, and all the [attending] Israelites to seven [times indicate that they] intend to live according to [YAH's] word. So the [penitents perform] seven [symbolic acts to indicate their repentance].
note: Not ‘swear an oath’.

Ezra 10:6 Then Ezra {Aid} gets up from [lying face-down] before Elohim's temple. [Then Ezra walks] into the chamber of JAHohanan {YAH-Favored} (the son of EliYahhib {El-Restores}). After going there, [Ezra] eats no food. He drinks [no] water. [He stays deep] in mourning over the treachery the [returning] exiles [committed by bedding down pagan sluts].

NehemiYAH 1:7 We deal very corruptly against You. We fail to guard [Your] commandments. [We ignore] the instructions and judgments you commanded your servant Moses.

NehemiYAH 9:3 For 1/4 of the day [6 hours] the [Hebrews] stand on their feet. They read the book of the Law of YHVH their Elohim. Then for another 1/4 day they confess [their sins]. [On their faces], they worship YHVH their Elohim.

NehemiYAH 9:38 —Because of all this, we [Israelis hereby] make a written covenant [to obey You]. We're sealing our [promise] with the names of our leaders, our Levites, and our priests.”
note: Yah doesn't need or want your pledge of allegiance. He wants your obedience.

Job 22:21 You [need to] get to know ‘God’. Make peace [with him]. Then good will come to you.

Job 22:23 If you return to the Almighty, [he] will build you up. Rid evil far from your dwelling[s].

Job 22:26 [Repent.] Then the Almighty will [fill your life with] delicious joy. Lift up your face to [apologize to YHVH the] Eloah.

Job 33:28 —[YAH] rescued my life-breath, my soul, from its descent into the ruins [of death].’ [So the sinner's] precious life sees the light [once more].

Job 34:31 So just say to El {God}, ‘I [can't] bear [my crushing load of guilt anymore. I'm sorry.] I'm done sinning.

Job 34:32 —Show me what I'm blind to. If I've done wrong, I'll stop.’

Job 36:21 Beware! Turn your face from lawlessness. Let your humiliation reform your decisions.

Job 42:6 So I abhor myself. I repent in dust and ashes.”

Psalms 7:5 —[if I've harmed innocent people], then let [my] haters chase me [to my] last breath, and take it. Yes, let [my opponents] tread down my life upon the earth, then lay my honor in the dust. Selah {Dramatic-Break}.
note: An emotional, not literally logical, prayer.

Psalms 19:12 [We need the Law, 😇.] Who can discern his [own] errors? ([YAH,] forgive my hidden faults.)
note: We are mirrors to each other.

Psalms 19:13 [YAH,] hold [me,] your servant, back from presumptuous sins. Never let [perversity] hold dominion over me. [Make] me upright. [Keep] me innocent from [life-destroying] transgression.

Psalms 19:14 I pray that the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart [rise] acceptably to your eyes, YHVH, my strength, my redeemer.

Psalms 41:4 I [cry], “YHVH, stoop-down to [help] me. Heal my body. I [confess]. I sin against you.”

Psalms 51:1 Have mercy on me, Elohim. [Dump] your abundance of loving-kindness on me. You overflow with compassion. So wipe out my [record] of rebellion.
note: An instrumentally-accompanied song which king David wrote to be arranged and conducted by Jerusalem's sanctuary's music director. David wrote this song when Nathan the Prophet busted him for bedding a lady named BathSheba then murdering her husband to cover-up the resulting pregnancy. (See 2Sa 12).

Psalms 51:6 [I] see that you bend down to [love your spiritual offspring] who are clean inside, not just [to hypocrites who look good on the outside]. So fix the knowledge of wisdom inside my [cracked heart].

Psalms 51:9 Hide your face from my sins. Blot all my depraved [acts] out [of history].

Psalms 78:34 [YAH] slays [most of] us [so-called ‘believers’], 😇. Finally [we survivors] seek him. We turn back [from sin] to seek [heaven's] El {Power}.

Psalms 95:8 [YAH says,] “Hear my voice today, 😇. Don't harden your heart like [your Moses-following ancestors did] at Meribah {Quarrel-Site}, in the day[s] of temptation in the wilderness.

Psalms 107:13 Then, in their death-squeeze, the [penitents] cry to YHVH. So he saves them out of the [devil's] trap[s].

Psalms 119:26 You see me walking [life's] road. I confess [where I stray]. Goad me [back onto] your marked [path].

Proverbs 4:15 Avoid the [highway to Hades]. Don't go near it, 😇. Turn from it. Then rush away.

IsaiYAH 45:24 [History's trillions of] people eventually confess, “YHVH gives me righteousness and strength.” [All] humans eventually stream to [YAH], 😇. Everyone who rages against [YAH] ends up suffering shame.

IsaiYAH 57:18 I see [your] ways, 😇. I heal [you]. [I] lead you. [I] restore comfort to [you] and [to all other penitent] mourners.

IsaiYAH 63:17 O YHVH, why do you [let] us stray off your path[s]? Why do you let our hearts grow so hard that we fail to fear you? Turn back to us. Keep the promises you made to your [ancient] obeyers, the [holy people] of your heritage-tribes.

JeremiYAH 2:9 So YHVH says, ‘I'll plead with you [one] more time, 😇. And I'll beg your children's children [to repent].

JeremiYAH 2:10 Cross [the ocean] to the Western lands, 😇. See. Send [spies east] to [Bedouin] Kedar. Diligently consider [what you're doing]. See if there exists [a people who abandon their gods], 😇.

JeremiYAH 3:12 Travel north [from Jerusalem]. Proclaim these words: “Return, backsliding Israel. YHVH promises, ‘[If you repent,] I'll hold back from [raining] my anger down on you. I'm merciful.’ YHVH pledges, ‘I don't hold [on to my] anger forever, 😇.’”

JeremiYAH 7:3 YHVH-commander-of-armies (Israel's Elohim) commands [you, 😇]: ‘Amend your ways-of-life. [Fix] your actions. Then I'll let you keep living in this place.’

JeremiYAH 7:7 [Behave, 😇.] Then I'll let you live in this place, in the land I gave your fathers, forever and ever.

JeremiYAH 16:19 [Jeremiah replies,] “Oh YHVH, my strength, my fortress, the refuge-I-flee-to in my tight-squeeze day[s]! [Repentant] beast-nationals stream to you from the ends of the earth. [They] cry, “Our [non-Hebrew] fore-fathers inherited absolute lies, vanity, profitless [traditions and customs].

JeremiYAH 24:7 I'm giving the [Jewish slaves] a heart to know me, [to realize] that I [am] YHVH {The-Only-Self-Existent-Being}. They eventually become my people, and I become their [acknowledged] Elohim {Sovereign}. They return to me with their whole heart.”

JeremiYAH 25:6 Stop chasing after retard-gods [and idiotic leaders], 😇. Avoid serving them. Stop worshiping them. Stop whipping up my grieving fury with the works of your hands. Then I'll do you no harm.

JeremiYAH 36:3 Maybe the house of Judah {Celebrated} will hear about all the disaster I'm planning to [rain] on them. Maybe [some] of them will turn back from their wicked way[s], so I can forgive their evil and [straighten-out] their sin.”

JeremiYAH 42:1 Then all the heads of [Judea's] labor-forces, including JAHohanan {YAH-Favored} and JezaniYah {Heard-By-YAH}, and all the [Israeli remnant] people from the least all the way to the greatest, approach the prophet Jeremiah.
note: Here and v8, lit. text incl.: the son of Kareah, and the son of HoshaYah [YAH-Saves]

JeremiYAH 42:3 —Ask YHVH your Elohim to show us the path we need to walk, and the things he [wants] us to do.”

JeremiYAH 50:5 Facing [south], the [redeemed Israelites] ask the way to Zion. [They] say, ‘Come, let's join ourselves to YHVH in a perpetual covenant that can never be forgotten.’

Lamentations 2:18 Cry [from your] heart to [YHVH] the Adonai, [you survivors left alive inside the] wall of [mount] Zion's daughter-city. Let tears run down [your faces] like river[s] day and night! Give yourself no rest! Deny slumber to the pupils of your eyes!

Lamentations 3:42 We [deceivers] betray and rebel. You, [YAH, refuse to pamper us fakes. You don't] spare us [the consequences of our destructive actions].
note: A wise, loving parent lets their children suffer necessary consequences.

Lamentations 5:21 Turn us back to you, YHVH. [This time] we'll [stay] turned. Renew our lifespans, like [you saved the] ancient [Hebrews].

Lamentations 5:22 [Please save us, even though] you completely rejected us and you're bursting in rage against us.

Ezekiel 39:22 So, from that day and forward, the house of Israel realizes that I am YHVH their Elohim {Sovereign}.

Ezekiel 45:20 Repeat this [ritual] on the 7th day of [the Hebrew year's first] month to [repent on behalf of] everyone who errs, and whoever [commits] foolish [sins]. This [act of contrition] covers the temple [with divine compassion].

Daniel 6:25 Then Emperor Darius writes [a proclamation]: “To all people, nations and language-groups who dwell in all the earth: Shalom-Rav {Abundant-Peace-and-Health}!

Daniel 9:15 And now, O YHVH our Elohim (who, with a mighty hand brought your people up out of the land of Egypt, thereby winning for yourself renown [that endures to] this day): we sin. We [humans] are wicked.

Daniel 9:16 O YHVH, [not because we're righteous, but because] you're so good, I urge you: Please! Turn away your fire-raging nostril[s] from your city: Jerusalem, your holy mountain. [We admit that] it's because of our crimes, and for the depravities of our fore-fathers, [that] Jerusalem and your people have become objects of scorn to all [the nations] around us.
note: Ex 20:5

Daniel 9:20 [A miracle happens while] I [stand] speaking, praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, casting my pleadings [heavenward, my] face up to my Sovereign YHVH, [begging Him to restore Zion,] the holy mountain of my Elohim:

Hosea 10:12 Plant righteousness [in] yourselves. Then you'll reap [a verdict of] mercy. 😇, break up your fallow ground. It's time to [keep on] seeking [direction] from YHVH, 'til he comes and rains righteousness upon you.
note: Referring to Deut. 32:2.

Hosea 12:6 So return to your Elohim {Supernatural-Sovereign}, 😇. Keep & guard mercy & kindness and justice. Continually wait with expectant [hearts] for your Elohim.

Jah-El 2:14 Know, 😇, that YAH relents. He lavishes compassion [on repenters]. He leaves a blessing behind Him [wherever he goes]. So present food donations and drink offerings to [poor saints]. [Honor] YHVH your Elohim [with your generous actions].

Jah-El 2:15 Blow the trumpet on the shining mountain of the City Of Peace! Proclaim a holy fast, 😇. Call [Hebrews to] a [sacred] assembly.

Jah-El 2:16 😇, gather [sincere] people. Sanctify the congregation. Assemble the elders. Gather the children, including babies who suckle breasts. Call the groom to run from his bedroom. Bid the bride to jump up from her marriage bed.
note: Interrupt even men and women in love on their honeymoon bed. Get them on their knees in repentance. Today's moral and military crisis is that serious. You'll have to break the lockdown orders in order to obey these commands to gather.

Jah-El 2:18 YHVH zealously [defends] his [repentant] country. He pities [and spares the lives of] his [humble] people.

Amos 5:14 Seek good! Stop wreaking ruin, 😇. Then you'll live. YHVH Elohim-over-armies will stick with you, as you [fakers] claim [He does].
note: Ask, "What is truly good behavior? What does the Bible say is right? Am I doing right? Does anybody in my church actually do what the Bible says?" The answer will shock you. A quick way to be kicked out of a modern church is to quote the Bible in it.

Jonah 3:9 Who can tell if Elohim {God} will change his course, and relent and turn from his fierce anger? [If not, we'll all] perish!”

MicaYah 2:13 Break out, 😇! Ascend! Face [heavenward]! [Your deliverer] smashes down the walls [of your prison]! Cross over! Pass through the gate! Leave [your old evil ways behind]! Go forward in YAH's Spirit! Your King [YahShua the Messiah] marches in front of you. YHVH [shines] at the head of [heaven's] triumphal procession! [Join us, 😇!]
note: Very difficult translation.

ZechariYAH 1:3 And tell the [Israelites], “YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies declares this: ‘Turn to me, 😇. I promise [that I,] YHVH-Who-Commands-Armies, will turn to you.’
note: “YHVH of hosts” occurs 52 times in Zechariah. “Hosts” is the Hebrew tsaba (Sabaoth), meaning service, strength, warfare. “‘Sabaoth’ implies boundless resources at YAH's command for His people’s good.”—Fauset

ZechariYAH 1:6 My words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, reached [some of] your fore-fathers. [The wise few] repented. They said, ‘YHVH-Almighty-Commander-Of-Armies does to us what our ways and practices deserve, just as he pre-determined to do.’”

ZechariYAH 7:3 [These envoys] consult the priests from the house of YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies. [The envoys] ask the prophets, “Should [we] weep & lament [and fast for a day] in this [year's] 5th month [August], sequestering [ourselves], as [we] have done for [the 70] years [since the fall of Jerusalem]?”

ZechariYAH 8:15 Now YHVH-Commander-Of-Armies says, “The converse [is also true, 😇]: [since] now [you're repenting, I'm] determined to do good to [the] City-Of-Peace and to the house of Judah {Celebrated}. So never be afraid.

ZechariYAH 8:20 YHVH-King-of-all-beings foretells, “See the future, 😇! [Whole] people-groups, the inhabitants of many cities, [run] flocking [to join YAH's people].

ZechariYAH 12:11 [See] the coming day of great wailing. [Jews repent for having killed the Messiah] in Jerusalem, like [the people of the region of] Hadad-Rimmon {Pomegranate} mourned [and wailed beyond any precedent] in the valley of Megiddon {Rendezvous} [when invading Egyptian troops shot king Josiah in 609BC].
note: Josiah's senseless war in Megiddo: 2 Chron 35:22-25.

ZechariYAH 12:12 Each family in the country [of Israel eventually] mourns&wails [over having killed Christ]. [Every] family sequesters itself. The family descended from [king] David {Love} quarantine [themselves], men and women separate; the family descended from [ancient prophet] Nathan {Gift} [likewise] quarantine [themselves], men and women separate.

Malachi 1:9 “Rub your faces on the ground like you're dying. Grieve. Repent. Plead before El {Heaven's-Power}. Bow down. Beg [Me to take] your hand and lift your [crying] face.

Acts 8:22 So repent of this your wickedness. Pray to YHVH. Maybe YAH will forgive you for the [greedy religious] intention(s) of your heart.

Acts 9:6 [Saul, trembling and astonished, asks, “Master, what do you want me to do?” Master [YahShua] replies to Saul,] “Get up. Go into the city. [My messengers] will tell you what you have to do.”

Acts 9:27 But Barnabas {Prophet-Child} [befriends] Saul. He brings him to the apostles [in Jerusalem]. Barnabas declares to the apostles how Saul saw Adoni [YahShua] in the road, and that [YahShua] spoke to Saul, and how at Damascus Saul boldly heralds in YahShua's name-authority.
note: Barnabas = Son of Prophecy.

Acts 20:21 I always urge both Jews and Greeks to repent, to turn to [YHVH] the Eloah, to [live in] faith in our Master YahShua, [YAH's] Messiah.

2nd Corinthians 5:20 So we [leaders work as] ambassadors for [the] Messiah. [YHVH] the Eloah makes his appeal to you [new believers] through us [apostles]. We appeal to you, 😇, on behalf of the Messiah, “Be reconciled to [YHVH] the Eloah!”

2nd Corinthians 6:2 YAH says, ‘I hear you [calling, 😇]. My favor [comes right on] time. Right when you need saving, I help you.’ I, [Paul,] tell you, 😇, that now is the time of Elohim's favor. Today is the day of [your] salvation.
note: (Isaiah 49:8)

2nd Corinthians 7:11 See what this righteous sorrow has produced in you: what earnestness, eagerness to clear yourselves, indignation, alarm [over YHVH's retribution], longing, concern, and readiness to see justice done. At every point you've proved yourselves to be blameless in this matter.
note: Look how seriously our letter made you think! That hard counsel made you long for my leadership, stirred up your faith, and made you ready to discipline the offender.

Judith 5:19 But now the Hebrews have returned to [YHVH] their Elohim. They've emigrated back from the [pagan] places where they were scattered. They've possessed Jerusalem, the site of their previously desolate sanctuary seated in the hill country.

Baruch 1:17 For we have sinned before Adonai [YHVH].

Prayer of AzariYAH 1:6 For we've [repeatedly] sinned and committed acts of unfairness, departing from you.

Prayer of AzariYAH 1:7 We trespassed and disobeyed your commandments in everything we did. We failed to guard your [laws.] We [ignored everything you] commanded us, even though your laws are for our own good!
note: This needs to be prayed in modern churches, because it's true.

Prayer of Manasseh 1:9 - I have sinned above the number of the [grains of] sand of the sea.

Leviticus 5:18 So as a confession-gift, you, 😇, bring to the priest a flawless ram or its equivalent from [your] flock. The priest [cooks its meat to feed the poor. This generous act] covers over your ignorant sin. So [YHVH] forgives you.

Leviticus 6:6 As a confession-gift, bring to [the priest of] YHVH a flawless ram from [your] flock, or the animal's equivalent value in silver, 😇.

On the 8th day of the month [around April 1] they assemble on “YHVH's porch.” They celebrate finishing 8 days of purifying YHVH's temple. Then they continue. They finally complete [the cleansing] on the 16th day of that first month [of the Hebrew year, around April 10].

2nd Chronicles 29:18 So the [priests] go into [the palace to] address king HezekiYah {Strength-From-YAH}. [The priests] say, “We've cleansed the whole temple of YHVH, including the altar of ascension, with all its utensils, and the holy bread table with all its utensils.

note: The Baptism that really makes the difference is when you fill up with YAH's Spirit.

1st Thessalonians 1:9 Wherever we [apostles] go, people recount to us the story about when we first came to you [new believers] and you welcomed us with open arms: how you turned [from evil] to [YHVH] the Eloah. You, 😇, turned away from idols to serve [YHVH], [the] true living Eloah, the One [being] who is [self-existent].

Judith 4:11 Thus [clothed,] every man and women, and the little children, including [all] the inhabitants of Jerusalem, fall [to the dirt in prayer] before the temple. They cast ashes upon their heads. They spread out their sackcloth before the face of [YHVH] Adonai. They even put sackcloth around the [temple's cooking] altar.

Prayer of Manasseh 1:9 - you have [given the power to] repent to me, a sinner:

Prayer of Manasseh 1:10 My transgressions, O Adonai [YHVH], are multiplied! My transgressions are multiplied, and I'm not worthy to behold and see the height of heaven for the multitude of my unfairness. I am bowed down with many iron bands, so that I can't lift up my head, and I never have any release: for I've provoked your fire-rage, and done evil before you: I didn't do your will. I didn't keep your commandments: I set up abominations, and multiplied offenses.

Prayer of Manasseh 1:8 So you, Adonai [YHVH], the Elohim of the just, have not appointed repentance to the just, who have not sinned against you;
note: The erroneous original implies that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob never sinned, which is a total joke. You can hardly find a single thing Jacob [Israel] ever did that wasn't a sin.
