LEADER But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; Isaiah 53:4-6 (NIV) CONGREGATION the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. LEADER We all, like sheep, have gone astray; each of us has turned to his own way; Isaiah 53:4-6 (NIV) CONGREGATION and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. LEADER If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand? Psalm 130:3-4 (NIV) CONGREGATION But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.

LEADER Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Psalm 51:1-2 (NIV) CONGREGATION Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. LEADER Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. Psalm 32:5 (NIV) CONGREGATION I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD” – and you forgave the guilt of my sin. LEADER “Come now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. Isaiah 1:18a (NIV) CONGREGATION “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be like wool.”

Return to me, for I have redeemed you.” Isaiah 44:22 (NIV) LEADER Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
