To confess one's guilt

Confess the truth. Reveal the truth that incriminates him or is to his detriment.

("Seven words in a crowd, and seven in a wise man: A wise man does not speak before him who is greater than he in wisdom, nor does he gather into the words of his friend, nor is he hasty to answer; he asks as a matter, and answers as a matter of course, and says of the first, first, and of the last, last, and of that which he has not heard, he says, I have not heard, and is thankful for The truth. And they shall be exchanged for a ransom" - Fathers of the 5th and 7th, and so: "The words of the truth are foreign, and a man judges by the appearance of his eyes. Who is he who is not grateful for the truth and does not see to take and give with him in the journey" - Pela Yo'etz/ The Lord's counsel, and so: "But now I am grateful for the truth: I have taken this affliction" - Y. Burla/ Money, 275, And so: "It may be said that the head of their own corps, they are true to the truth" - H. Hazaz / Dorot Harashonim, 22, and so: "I confess to the truth, what remains to me / of the northern path, Menorah, this / is what brought me here / from recorders and books" - Nathan Yonatan / The Northern Path)
