Nothing that has a defect

shall you present;

for it shall not be acceptable for you.

Leviticus 22:20

 For though thou wash thee with nitre,

and take thee much potash,

thine iniquity is marked before me,

saith the Lord Jehovah.

Jeremiah 2:22

 If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities,

Lord, who shall stand

Psalms 130:3

 Then Jesus said:..

For whosoever shall desire to save his life

shall lose it ...

For what does a man profit,

if he should gain the whole world

and suffer the loss of his soul?

or what shall a man give

in exchange for his soul?

Matthew 16:24-26

   Be ye holy... knowing that ye have been redeemed, not by ... silver or gold ..

but by precious blood, as of a lamb

without blemish and without spot,

the blood of Christ

1 Peter 1:16:19
