38:3 My whole body is sick because of your judgment;
I am deprived of health because of my sin.
Psalms 38:18
38:18 Yes, I confess my wrongdoing,
and I am concerned about my sins.
Psalms 39:11
39:11 You severely discipline people for their sins;
like a moth you slowly devour their strength.
Surely all people are a mere vapor. (Selah)

90:7 Yes, we are consumed by your anger;
we are terrified by your wrath.

the years of our lives pass quickly, like a sigh.
Lamentations 1:18
Jerusalem Speaks:
צ (Tsade)
1:18 The Lord is right to judge me!
Yes, I rebelled against his commands.
Please listen, all you nations,
and look at my suffering!
My young women and men
have gone into exile.
Lamentations 3:39-42
3:39 Why should any living person complain
when punished for his sins?
נ (Nun)
3:40 Let us carefully examine our ways,
and let us return to the Lord.
3:41 Let us lift up our hearts and our hands
to God in heaven:
3:42 “We have blatantly rebelled;
you have not forgiven.”
Lamentations 5:16
5:16 The crown has fallen from our head;
woe to us, for we have sinned!
Daniel 9:8-14
9:8 O
LORD, we have been humiliated
– our kings, our leaders, and our ancestors – because we have sinned against you.
9:9 Yet the Lord our God is compassionate and forgiving,
even though we have rebelled against him.
9:10 We have not obeyed
the
LORD our God by living according to
his laws
that he set before us through his servants the prophets.
9:11 “All Israel has broken your law and turned away by not obeying you. Therefore you have poured out on us the judgment solemnly threatened in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against you.
9:12 He has carried out his threats against us and our rulers who were over us by bringing great calamity on us – what has happened to Jerusalem has never been equaled under all heaven!
9:13 Just as it is written in the law of Moses, so all this calamity has come on us. Still we have not tried to pacify the LORD our God by turning back from our sin and by seeking wisdom from your reliable moral standards.
9:14 The LORD was mindful of the calamity, and he brought it on us. For the LORD our God is just in all he has done, and we have not obeyed him.
Romans 3:19
3:19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to God.
