If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.

"Truly I know that it is so, but how can man be just with God?

if I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from my iniquity.

What is man, that he should be clean? What is he who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."

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

Hear, LORD, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

"Happy are they whose iniquities are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
