He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

- Proverbs 28:13 (King James Version)

☦️

He who hides his own ungodliness shall not prosper, but he who leads his own rebuttal shall be loved.

- Proverbs 28:14 (Orthodox Study Bible, which uses the Septuagint Old Testament)

☦️

I address you too, the penitents. You should not keep back from yourselves this means of healing [confession] that has been given you. For it says in the Scripture, “He who confesses his sins and abandons them, on him God has mercy.” Look at the son who squandered his wealth. And when he returned to his father, he received him in joy and slew the fatted ox for him. And his father rejoiced at his repentance and even invited his friends to rejoice with him. And his father embraced him and kept on kissing him, saying, “This my son was dead and has come to life; he was lost and has been found.” And his father did not reprove him for the wealth he had squandered.
