'Terms' in the Bible

But if not, [while] [the other] is still far away, he sends an ambassador [and] asks {for terms of} peace.

(I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh.) For just as you presented your members [as] slaves to immorality and lawlessness, [leading] to lawlessness, so now present your members [as] slaves to righteousness, [leading] to sanctification.
