Psalm 1:1
New King James Version (NKJV)

Mark 1:5
New King James Version (NKJV)

⁵ Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

Argument : 

• confessing of sins is plural
• confessing of sins is for believers
• confessing of sins is in present tense

Present tense is also not just something happening at the moment but it can also mean characteristic

(

Eg:

• Soap washes,
• Blood of Jesus cleanses ( it is used in present tense but also Characteristic )

)

• Here it is a characteristic of turning away from sin to God

Its a Hebraism for turning from sin to God
