Psalms 49:10-19

MKJV(i) 10 For he sees wise men die; likewise the fool and the animal-like ones perish, and leave their wealth to others. 11 Their inward thought is that their houses shall go on forever, and their dwelling-places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names. 12 But man, though high in honor, does not remain; he is like the animals that perish. 13 This way of theirs is their foolishness; yet their followers delight in their sayings. Selah. 14 Like sheep they are appointed to the grave; death shall reign for them; and the upright shall have the rule over them in the morning; and their form is for rotting; the grave is their home. 15 But God will redeem my soul from the hand of the grave; for He will take me. Selah. 16 Be not afraid when one becomes rich, when the glory of his house increases; 17 for when he dies he shall take nothing away; his glory shall not go down after him. 18 For in his life he blessed his soul; yea, they praise you when you do well to yourself. 19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
