CEB
They can’t give either wealth or money. If someone makes a solemn promise and doesn’t keep it, they can’t enforce it.
NRSVA
Whether one does evil to them or good, they will not be able to repay it. They cannot set up a king or depose one.
NRSVUE
Likewise, they are not able to give either wealth or money; if one makes a vow to them and does not keep it, they will not require it.
RSV
Whether one does evil to them or good, they will not be able to repay it. They cannot set up a king or depose one.
WYC
And if they suffer anything of evil of (or from) any man, or if they suffer anything of good, they may not (or be not able to) yield back (or to repay it). Neither they may (or be able to) ordain [or (to) make] a king, neither do (him) away.
