Don’t let your great riches mislead you;
don’t think you can bribe your way out of this.
Did you plan to buy your way out of this?
Not on your life!

or all the force of your strength?

Don’t let yourself be bribed into sin.

Yes, it is wrath, so that it will not incite you into mockery;
and do not let the ransom’s greatness turn you aside.
Will your cry for help sustain you without distress,
or all the efforts of your strength?

KJV 1900King James Version
Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke:
Then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.
Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold,
Nor all the forces of strength.
