Psalms 49:6-13

LEB(i) 6 those who trust their wealth and boast about the abundance of their riches? 7 Surely a man cannot redeem a brother. He cannot give to God his ransom 8 (since* the redemption price for their life is costly and it always fails), 9 so that he may stay alive forever and not see the pit. 10 For he sees that the wise die, together with the fool and brute they perish, and leave their wealth to the next generation. 11 Within them they think their houses are forever, their dwelling places from generation to generation. They name* their lands by their own names. 12 But man cannot continue in his pomp. He is like the beasts that perish. 13 This is the journey* of those who have foolish confidence, and those after them who accept their sayings. Selah
