New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁶⁶ You shall be put to shame when your sins come out before others, and your own iniquities shall stand as your accusers on that day.^{(A) 67} What will you do? Or how will you hide your sins before the Lord and his glory?^{(B) 68} Indeed, God^[a] is the judge; fear him! Cease from your sins and forget your iniquities, never to commit them again, so God^[b] will lead you forth and deliver you from all tribulation.^(C)
