Psalm 49:5-9
Why should I fear in times of trouble, when the iniquity of those who cheat me surrounds me, 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.
I have nothing to fear from those who attempt to take advantage of me. All is from You and for You, if someone steals or cheats, they are taking from You and must answer to You not me. You have paid the price for my life; You have insured that I will never see the pit; all else is insignificant.
