Psalms 49:14-20

14Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.12

15But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.34 16Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased; 17For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him. 18Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.5 19He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.6 20Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
