He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
The opening seven chapters stand as reproof and instruction summoning the reader to choose wisdom as the path of life. Within that call, the verse describes an offended husband who will not regard any ransom and will not rest content though many gifts are given. No payment satisfies him and nothing turns aside his anger. To refuse such instruction and to break God's spiritual laws brings spiritual disease, death, and ruin.
