Psalms 49:14-20 ▼

14 They have set themselves as sheep for Sheol, || Death afflicts them, || And the upright rule over them in the morning, || And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for him.

15 Only, God ransoms my soul from the hand of Sheol, || For He receives me. Selah.

16 Do not fear when one makes wealth, || When the glory of his house is abundant,

17 For at his death he receives nothing, || His glory does not go down after him.

18 For he blesses his soul in his life || (And they praise you when you do well for yourself).

19 It comes to the generation of his fathers, || They do not see the light forever.

20 Man in honor, who does not understand, || Has been like the beasts, they have been cut off!
