“You said to me, ‘Listen, and I will speak.
    I will ask you questions, and you will answer me.’
In the past I heard about you,
    but now I have seen you with my own eyes.
And I am ashamed of myself.[a]
    I am so sorry.
As I sit in the dust and ashes,[b]
    I promise to change my heart and my life.”
