For you know that it was not with corruptible gold or silver that you were redeemed away from your useless behavior in the traditions of your fathers. (1P 1:18)
εἰδότες ὅτι οὐ φθαρτοῖς, ἀργυρίῳ ἢ χρυσίῳ, ἐλυτρώθητε ἐκ τῆς ματαίας ὑμῶν ἀναστροφῆς πατροπαραδότου.
scientes quod non corruptibilibus argento vel auro redempti estis de vana vestra conversatione paternae traditionis.
It seems that being redeemed, either in the sacrament of baptism or later in the sacrament of confession, costs nothing. It is said (I have heard it many times) that sacraments cost nothing, my salvation costs nothing… However, it costs a lot, but I never pay for it, this is what Jesus does by His Blood.
