Micah 7:9
New King James Version
9 (A)I will bear the indignation of the Lord,
Because I have sinned against Him,
Until He pleads my (B)case
And executes justice for me.
He will bring me forth to the light;
I will see His righteousness.
Proverbs 19:3
New King James Version
3 The foolishness of a man twists his way,
And his heart frets against the Lord.
Jeremiah 30:15
New King James Version
15 Why (A)do you cry about your affliction?
Your sorrow is incurable.
Because of the multitude of your iniquities,
Because your sins have increased,
I have done these things to you.
Hebrews 12:5-12
New King James Version
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:
(A)“My son, do not despise the [a]chastening of the Lord,
Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
6 For (B)whom the Lord loves He chastens,
And scourges every son whom He receives.”
7 (C)If[b] you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what (D)son is there whom a father does not chasten? 8 But if you are without chastening, (E)of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons. 9 Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to (F)the Father of spirits and live? 10 For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, (G)that we may be partakers of His holiness. 11 Now no [c]chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields (H)the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

Jonah 4:8-9
New King James Version
8 And it happened, when the sun arose, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he grew faint. Then he wished death for himself, and said, (A)“It is better for me to die than to live.”
9 Then God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the plant?”
And he said, “It is right for me to be angry, even to death!”

Jonah 2:3-4
New King James Version
3 (A)For You cast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
(B)All Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
4 (C)Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight;
Yet I will look again (D)toward Your holy temple.’

New King James Version
Isaiah 51:20
New King James Version
20 (A)Your sons have fainted,
They lie at the head of all the streets,
Like an antelope in a net;
They are full of the fury of the Lord,
The rebuke of your God.
Isaiah 38:17-19
New King James Version
17 Indeed it was for my own peace
That I had great bitterness;
But You have lovingly delivered my soul from the pit of corruption,
For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
18 For (A)Sheol cannot thank You,
Death cannot praise You;
Those who go down to the pit cannot hope for Your truth.
19 The living, the living man, he shall praise You,
As I do this day;
(B)The father shall make known Your truth to the children.
Job 11:6
New King James Version
6 That He would show you the secrets of wisdom!
For they would double your prudence.
Know therefore that (A)God [a]exacts from you
Less than your iniquity deserves.

Joshua 7:6-13
New King James Version
6 Then Joshua (A)tore his clothes, and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the Lord until evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they (B)put dust on their heads. 7 And Joshua said, “Alas, Lord [a]God, (C)why have You brought this people over the Jordan at all—to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us? Oh, that we had been content, and dwelt on the other side of the Jordan! 8 O Lord, what shall I say when Israel turns its [b]back before its enemies? 9 For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear it, and surround us, and (D)cut off our name from the earth. Then (E)what will You do for Your great name?”
The Sin of Achan
10 So the Lord said to Joshua: “Get up! Why do you lie thus on your face? 11 Israel has sinned, and they have also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them. (F)For they have even taken some of the [c]accursed things, and have both stolen and (G)deceived; and they have also put it among their own stuff. 12 (H)Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because (I)they have become doomed to destruction. Neither will I be with you anymore, unless you destroy the accursed from among you. 13 Get up, (J)sanctify[d] the people, and say, (K)‘Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, because thus says the Lord God of Israel: “There is an accursed thing in your midst, O Israel; you cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the accursed thing from among you.”
