And boast in the abundance of their riches?
7Truly, no man can aredeem his brother;
He cannot give to God a bransom for him—
8For athe redemption price for their soul is costly,
And it ceases forever—
9That he should alive on eternally,

ESVEnglish Standard Version
those who trust in their wealth
and boast of the abundance of their riches?
Truly no man can ransom another,
or give to God the price of his life,
for the ransom of their life is costly
and can never suffice,
that he should live on forever
and never see the pit.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
those who trust in their wealth
and boast of their great riches?
No one can redeem the life of another
or give to God a ransom for them—
the ransom for a life is costly,
no payment is ever enough—
so that they should live on forever
and not see decay.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
They trust in their wealth
and boast of their abundant riches.
Yet these cannot redeem a person
or pay his ransom to God—
since the price of redeeming him is too costly,
one should forever stop trying—
so that he may live forever
and not see the Pit.

NLTNew Living Translation
They trust in their wealth
and boast of great riches.
Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death
by paying a ransom to God.
Redemption does not come so easily,
for no one can ever pay enough
to live forever
and never see the grave.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
those who trust their wealth
and boast about the abundance of their riches?
Surely a man cannot redeem a brother.
He cannot give to God his ransom
(since the redemption price for their life is costly
and it always fails),
so that he may stay alive forever
and not see the pit.

KJV 1900King James Version
They that trust in their wealth,
And boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
None of them can by any means redeem his brother,
Nor give to God a ransom for him:
(For the redemption of their soul is precious,
And it ceaseth for ever:)
That he should still live for ever,
And not see corruption.
