1 Peter 1:16-19
New King James Version
16 because it is written, (A)“Be holy, for I am holy.”
17 And if you call on the Father, who (B)without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your [a]stay here in fear; 18 knowing that you were not redeemed with [b]corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but (C)with the precious blood of Christ, (D)as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
