Psalms 49:5-9
5Why should I 1fear in days of adversity, When the iniquity of my 2foes surrounds me,6Even those who 3trust in their wealth And boast in the abundance of their riches?7No man can by any means 4redeem his brother Or give to God a 5ransom for him--8For 6the redemption of 7his soul is costly, And he should cease trying forever--9That he should 8live on eternally, That he should not 910undergo decay.
