Psalms 106:6

Sin Guilt and conscience Repentance Forgiveness

⁴ Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;

⁵ That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

⁷ Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

⁸ Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
