Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol?
Shall I redeem them from death?
O Death, where are your thorns?
O Sheol, where is your sting?
Compassion will be hidden from My sight.

If a ransom is demanded of him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is demanded of him.

“When you take a census of the sons of Israel to number them, then each one of them shall give a ransom for himself to the Lord, when you number them, so that there will be no plague among them when you number them.

“Beware that wrath does not entice you to scoffing;
And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.

No man can by any means redeem his brother Or give to God a ransom for him-- For the redemption of his soul is costly, And he should cease trying forever--

He will not accept any ransom,
Nor will he be satisfied though you give many gifts.

The ransom of a man’s life is his wealth,
But the poor hears no rebuke.
