Will it start with starting fluid? Have you checked fuel pressure?

Most likely the fuel pump is bad, isn't getting proper voltage, the fuel pump relay is bad... Did it start for a couple seconds with the starting fluid?

Then no fuel is getting to the engine. Confirm that pressure is within the manufacturer's specs. If it is, check to see if the injectors are getting power.
