For your name's sake, O Lord, pardon my guilt, for it is great.
Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; deliver us, and atone for our sins, for your name's sake!
I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake.
For you are my rock and my fortress; and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me;
“I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.
Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.
“Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations to which you came.
But I acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations among whom they lived, in whose sight I made myself known to them in bringing them out of the land of Egypt.
“For my name's sake I defer my anger; for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you, that I may not cut you off.
But you, O God my Lord, deal on my behalf for your name's sake; because your steadfast love is good, deliver me!
For your name's sake, O Lord, preserve my life! In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble!
And now, please let the power of the Lord be great as you have promised, saying, ‘The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’ Please pardon the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of your steadfast love, just as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt until now.”
