1 Peter 1:19

Be Holy In All Your Conduct

¹⁸ For you know that you were not redeemed from your useless [spiritually unproductive] way of life inherited [by tradition] from your forefathers with perishable things like silver and gold, ¹⁹ but [you were actually purchased] with precious blood, like that of a [sacrificial] lamb unblemished and spotless, the priceless blood of Christ. ²⁰ For He was foreordained (foreknown) before the foundation of the world, but has appeared [publicly] in these last times for your sake
