'Repents' in the Bible
I've listened and I've heard, and what they say is not right. No one repents of his evil and says, "What have I done?' "They all turn to their own course like a horse racing into battle.
Among the prophets of Jerusalem I saw a horrible thing, for they commit adultery and live a lie. They strengthen the hands of those who do evil, so that no one repents of his evil. All of them are like Sodom to me, and her residents like Gomorrah."
“So when I tell the wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ but he repents of his sin and does what is just and right—
I tell you, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous people who don’t need repentance.
I tell you, in the same way, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
