Proverbs 13:8

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.

And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.

And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.

If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.

But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.

But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.

But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren.

He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
