Proverbs 6:35
He will not regard any ransom; Neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
In context
32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: He that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.
33 A wound and dishonour shall he get; And his reproach shall not be wiped away. 34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: Therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. 35 He will not regard any ransom; Neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
