Repent:

The Bible uses the word repent to refer to an attitude of sorrow or remorse that causes a person to turn away from a life that displeases God towards a new, God-honoring life.

The Amplified Bible explains the word repent to mean when people "change their minds for the better and heartily amend their ways, with abhorrence of their past sins" or "feel sorry for having sinned."

Repentance is the act of repenting.
