| ¶ [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.]] Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world: |
||
Both low and high, rich and poor, together. |
||
My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding. |
||
I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp. |
||
Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about? |
||
They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches; |
||
None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him: |
||
(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:) |
||
That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption. |
||
For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others. |
||
Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names. |
||
Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish. |
||
This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah. |
||
Like 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. |
||
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah. |
||
Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased; |
||
For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him. |
||
Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself. |
||
He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light. |
||
Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish. |
