'Pay' in the Bible

We must, therefore, pay even more attention to what we have heard, so that we will not drift away.

how will we escape [the penalty] if we ignore such a great salvation [the gospel, the new covenant]? For it was spoken at first by the Lord, and it was confirmed to us and proved authentic by those who personally heard [Him speak],

and, so to speak, through Abraham, Levi also, who received tithes, has been made to pay tithes.

For we know the one who said, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will pay them back," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."
