7 If we walk in the light  * as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus  * his Son cleanses us from all sin.

9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive  * us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit  * offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our  * consciences from dead works so that we can serve the living God?  *

3 The Son is the radiance  * of God’s glory and the exact expression  * of his nature,  * sustaining all things by his powerful word.  * After making purification for sins,  * he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.  *,*

14 He gave himself for us  * to redeem us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people for his own possession,  * eager to do good works.

10 God, create a clean heart for me

and renew a steadfast  *  spirit within me.  *

1 Be gracious to me, God,

according to your faithful love;

according to your abundant compassion,

blot out my rebellion.  *

2 Completely wash away my guilt

and cleanse me from my sin.  *

8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.  *

1 So then, dear friends, since we have these promises,  * let us cleanse ourselves from every impurity of the flesh and spirit,  * bringing holiness to completion  * in the fear of God.  *

2 Dear friends, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet been revealed.  * We know that when he appears,  * we will be like him  * because we will see him as he is.  *3 And everyone who has this hope  * in him purifies himself just as he is pure.  *

3 You are already clean*because of the word I have spoken to you.

25 Husbands, love your wives,  * just as Christ loved  * the church and gave himself  * for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing  * her with the washing of water by the word.

16 And now, why are you delaying? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins,  * calling on his name.’  *

21 Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you (not as the removal of dirt from the body,  * but the pledge  * of a good conscience toward God) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,  *

16 "Wash yourselves. Cleanse yourselves.  *

Remove your evil deeds from my sight.

Stop doing evil.  *

20 And he said, "What comes out of a person is what defiles him.21 For from within, out of people’s hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immoralities,*thefts, murders,*22 adulteries,*greed,*evil actions, deceit,*self-indulgence,*envy,*slander,*pride,*and foolishness.*23 All these evil things come from within and defile a person."
