(44) The fifth step of humility is that a man does not conceal from his abbot any sinful thoughts entering his heart, or any wrongs committed in secret, but rather confesses them humbly.
(45) Concerning this, Scripture exhorts us, "Make known your way to the Lord and hope in Him," (Ps 36[37]:5).
(46) And again, "Confess to the Lord, for he is good; His mercy is forever," (Ps 105[106]:1; Ps 117[118]:1).
(47) So too the Prophet: "To you I have acknowledged my offense; my faults I have not concealed.
(48) I have said: Against myself I will report my faults to the Lord, and you have forgiven the wickedness of my heart," (Ps 31[32]:22-23).
