49To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Hear this, all peoples; Give ear, all inhabitants of the world,H5329H4210H1121H7141H8085H5971H238H3427H24652Both low and high, Rich and poor together.H1121H120H1121H376H6223H34H31623My mouth shall speak wisdom, And the meditation of my heart shall give understanding.H6310H1696H2454H1900H3820H83944I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will disclose my dark saying on the harp.H5186H241H4912H6605H2420H36585Why should I fear in the days of evil, When the iniquity at my heels surrounds me?H3372H3117H7451H5771H6120H54376Those who trust in their wealth And boast in the multitude of their riches,H982H2428H1984H7230H62397None of them can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give to God a ransom for him—H376H6299H6299H251H5414H430H37248For the redemption of their souls is costly, And it shall cease forever—H6306H5315H3365H2308H57699That he should continue to live eternally, And not see the Pit.H2421H5331H7200H784510For he sees wise men die; Likewise the fool and the senseless person perish, And leave their wealth to others.H7200H2450H4191H3162H3684H1198H6H5800H2428H31211Their inner thought is that their houses will last forever, Their dwelling places to all generations; They call their lands after their own names.H7130H1004H5769H4908H1755H1755H7121H127H803412Nevertheless man, though in honor, does not remain; He is like the beasts that perish.H120H3366H3885H4911H929H182013This is the way of those who are foolish, And of their posterity who approve their sayings. SelahH1870H3689H310H7521H6310H554214Like sheep they are laid in the grave; Death shall feed on them; The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; And their beauty shall be consumed in the grave, far from their dwelling.H6629H8371H7585H4194H7462H3477H7287H1242H6697H6736H1086H7585H207315But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave, For He shall receive me. SelahH430H6299H5315H3027H7585H3947H554216Do not be afraid when one becomes rich, When the glory of his house is increased;H3372H376H6238H3519H1004H723517For when he dies he shall carry nothing away; His glory shall not descend after him.H4194H3947H3519H3381H31018Though while he lives he blesses himself (For men will praise you when you do well for yourself),H2416H1288H5315H3034H319019He shall go to the generation of his fathers; They shall never see light.H935H1755H1H3808H5331H7200H21620A man who is in honor, yet does not understand, Is like the beasts that perish.H120H3366H995H4911H929H1820
