2 hrs confidence: | please do not be corrupted by money, greed and vice โปรดอย่าให้เงินตรา ความเห็นแก่ได้ และความชั่ว นำไปสู่ความประพฤติอันเลวทราม
Explanation:
โปรดอย่าให้เงินตรา ความเห็นแก่ได้ และความชั่ว นำไปสู่ความประพฤติอันเลวทราม
Please = โปรด/กรุณา
do not = อย่า
Money = เงิน/เงินตรา
greed = ความละโมบ/ความเห็นแก่ได้/ความอยากได้
and = และ
vice = ความชั่ว
be corrupted by = เลวทราม/เสื่อมทราม/ด่างพร้อย/ประพฤติมิชอบ
It may be confusing to translate this straight forward in Thai, back translation of my Thai translation would be, Please do not let money, greed and vice bring to corrupt behaviour.
I hope this helps :)

Explanation:
I think, the hidden subject of the verb 'be corrupted' in the first clause is 'your mind' or 'your soul' = ความคิดจิตใจของคุณ.
Adding this words makes the translation sound more smoothly.

Sorry, I unsuccessfully tried to fix the displayed text..
The translation I suggested is 'โปรดอย่าปล่อยให้อำนาจเงินตรา ความโลภ และสิ่งเลวร้ายต่างๆ(ในสังคม) เข้าครอบงำความคิดจิตใจของคุณ'
