Proverbs 28:13, 17, 24 He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper; But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall obtain mercy. A man that is laden with the blood of any person Shall flee unto the pit; let no man stay him. Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression, The same is the companion of a destroyer. | American Standard Version (ASV)
