Here are a couple of biblical quotes; are either of these powerful enough for your purpose?: (Psalm 50:22-23) "Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver. Whoever offers praise glorifies Me, and to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God." Or maybe, (Psalm 37:12-15) " The wicked man plots against the just and gnashes his teeth at them; but the Lord laughs at him, for he sees that his day is coming. A sword the wicked draw; they bend their bow to bring down the afflicted and the poor, to slaughter those whose path is right. But their swords shall pierce their own hearts, and their bows shall be broken." Maybe this line from the Cecil B. DeMille film "The Ten Commandments" will work for you: (When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the tablets of the Lord's Law and saw His people sinning) "Those who will not live by the law, shall die by the law!"

Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9
He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. they will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of His power.
Also, the whole book of Revelation.

Nothing better than the line used in Pulp Fiction, since you can
have the image of John Travolta and Samuel Jackson firing a
pair of shotguns right after he says it.
Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."

Look at the story of priscilla and aquilla. God strikes them dead with lighting when they lied to someone about money.
