{17:23} Return to the Lord, and turn away from your injustice, and have immense hatred for abomination.
{17:24} And acknowledge the justices and judgments of God, and stand firm in the circumstances set before you and in prayer to the most high God.
{17:25} Go to the side of the holy generation, to those who live in order to give praise to God.
{17:26} You should not linger in the error of the impious; confess before death. Confession perishes from the dead as if it were nothing.
{17:27} Confess while living; you should give thanks while you are still alive and healthy. And you should praise God and glory in his compassion.
