It was spidervenom meant to kill Marie.

And Marie was not an Endezeichen Grimm. So why should Renard expect Nick turning into one? Sorry, but that makes no sense.

Renard maybe wanted her dead just because she was a Grimm with one of the keys. Could be as simple as that, could be a lot more complicated ;-)

He told Nick he didn't realized his connection with Marie at first (tough hard to believe there's sthg our hard working Prince of Portland doesn't know...). So he maybe changed his plans because of Nick "having a badge and a conscience". So they could work together for a saver Portland for Wesen and Kehrseites alike ;-)

But with Renard we'll probably never know XDD
