Make it right (5)

I believe the answer is:

atone

(Other definitions for atone that I've seen before include "Adopt a cause" , "Turn away from sin and do penance" , "Recompense" , "Make up for wrong done" , "Expiate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the L.A. Times Daily, the Newsday, the USA Today and the Universal.
