Psalm 49:7-9
Good News Translation

7 We can never redeem ourselves;
    we cannot pay God the price for our lives,
8     because the payment for a human life is too great.
What we could pay would never be enough
9     to keep us from the grave,
    to let us live forever.

    no payment is ever enough—(B)

    and not see decay.(D)
