Example of 'noun + for + noun'
I know that 'An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth' is a famous law of retaliation in Bible.
Are there another examples of 'noun + for + noun'? in English?
(I remember seeing 'sub for sub' (sub=subscription), where two people exchange subscriptions to their channels in Youtube.)
Thank you.
