Psalms 49:11-13

11Their 12inner thought is that their houses 3are forever And their dwelling places to all generations; They have 4called their lands after their own names.12But 5man in his 6pomp will not endure; He is like the 7beasts that 8perish.

13This is the 9way of those who are foolish, And of those after them who 10approve their words. 11Selah.
