Revised Version 1895

Psalms 49:14-20

14They are appointed as a flock for Sheol; death shall be their shepherd: and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morningH2088; and their beauty shall be for Sheol to consume, that there be no habitation for it.

15But God will redeem my soul from the power of SheolH7585: for he shall receive me. Selah

16Be notH3588 thou afraid when one is madeH3947 rich, when the glory of his house is increased:

17For when he dieth he shall carry nothingH408 away; his gloryH3519 shall notH408 descend afterH3588 him.

18ThoughH3588 whileH3588 he livedH310 he blessed his soul, and menH3605 praiseH3588 thee, when thou doest well to thyself,

19He shall goH3190 to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see the light.

20ManH7200 that is in honour, and understandeth notH3808, is like the beasts that perish.
