1 Peter 1:18-21

18knowing that you were not 12redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your 3futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, 19but with precious 4blood, as of a 5lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. 20For He was 6foreknown before 7the foundation of the world, but has 8appeared 9in these last times 10for the sake of you 21who through Him are 11believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and 12gave Him glory, so that your faith and 13hope are in God.
