3. They submitted themselves to God. They took the shame of their Sins to themselves, and acknowledged that all miseries belonged to them for the same; and that God was righteous in condemning them, Psal. 51. 4. Dan. 9. 8. And so they yielded themselves up to God.
4. They prayed hard for a pardon. They besought God for his mercy; yielded that nothing else but mercy could do it; that God must do it for his name sake if at all, and accordingly pleaded it • Psal. 25. 11.
5. They forsook their sins. They turned from and renounced them utterly, Judg. 10. 16. 2 Chr. 33. 15.
