'Penalty' in the Bible

If, however, I have done wrong and have committed any offence for which I deserve to die, I do not ask to be excused that penalty. But if there is no truth in what these men allege against me, no one has the right to give me up to them as a favour. I appeal to Caesar."

for he who has paid the penalty of death stands absolved from his sin.

They will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, being banished from the presence of the Lord and from His glorious majesty,
