Psalms 49:13-20
13ThisH2088 is the 1wayH1870 of those who are foolishH3689, And of those afterH310 them who 2approveH7521 their wordsH6310. SelahH554214Like sheepH6629 they sinkH7743 downH7743 3to 4SheolH7585; DeathH4194 will be their shepherdH7462; And the 5uprightH3477 will ruleH7287 over them in the morningH1242, And their formH6736 shall be for 6SheolH7585 7to consumeH1086 8SoH4480 thatH4480 they have noH4480 loftyH2073 homeH2073.15But GodH430 will 9redeemH6299 my soulH5315 from the 10powerH3027 of 11SheolH7585, For 12He will receiveH3947 me. SelahH5542
16Do not beH3372 afraidH3372 13whenH3588 a personH376 becomesH6238 richH6238, WhenH3588 the splendorH3519 of his houseH1004 is increasedH7235;17For when he diesH4194, he will 14takeH3947 nothingH3808H3605 with him; His 15wealthH3519 will not descendH3381 afterH310 him.18ThoughH3588 while he livesH2425 he 16congratulatesH1288 17himselfH5315-- And though people praiseH3034 you whenH3588 you doH3190 wellH3190 for yourself--1918He will 19goH935 to the generationH1755 of his fathersH1; They will neverH3808H5704H5331 seeH7200 20the lightH216.2021MankindH120 in its splendorH3366, yet withoutH3808 understandingH995, Is 22likeH4911 the animalsH929 that 23perishH1820.
