PSALM 49
Why Should I Fear in Days of Evil?
For the choir director. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.
1 Hear H8085 this H2088, all H3605 peoples H5971;
Give H238 ear H238, all H3605 inhabitants H3427 of the world H2465,
2 Both H1571 [fn]low H1121 H120 and [fn]high H1121 H376,
Rich H6223 and poor H34 together H3162.
3 My mouth H6310 will speak H1696 wisdom H2451,
And the meditation H1900 of my heart H3820 will be discernment H8394.
4 I will incline H5186 my ear H241 to a proverb H4912;
I will [fn]express H6605 my riddle H2420 on the harp H3658.
5 Why H4100 should I fear H3372 in days H3117 of evil H7451,
When the iniquity H5771 of my [fn]supplanters H6120 surrounds H5437 me,
6 Even those who trust H982 in their wealth H2428
And boast H1984 in the abundance H7230 of their riches H6239?
7 Truly H6299, no H3808 man H376 can redeem H6299 his brother H251;
He cannot H3808 give H5414 to God H430 a ransom H3724 for him—
8 For the redemption H6306 price H6306 for their soul H5315 is H3365 costly H3365,
And it ceases H2308 forever H5769—
9 That he should live H2421 on eternally H5331,
That he should not see H7845 [fn]corruption H7845.
10 For he sees H7200 that even wise H2450 men H2450 die H4191;
The [fn]fool H3684 and the senseless H1198 alike H3162 perish H6
And leave H5800 their wealth H2428 to others H312.
11 Their [fn]inner H7130 thought H7130 is that their houses H1004 are forever H5769
And their dwelling H4908 places H4908 [fn]from generation H1755 to H1755 generation H1755;
They have called H7121 their lands H127 after their own names H8034.
12 But man H120 in his honor H3366 will not endure H3885;
He is like H4911 the animals H929 that [fn]perish H1820.
13 This H2088 is the way H1870 of those who are foolish H3689,
And of those after H310 them who are pleased H7521 [fn]with their words H6310. [fn]Selah H5542.
14 As sheep H6629 they are appointed H8371 for Sheol H7585;
Death H4194 will shepherd H7462 them;
And the upright H3477 shall have H7287 dominion H7287 over them in the morning H1242,
And their form H6736 shall be for Sheol H7585 to consume H1086,
Far away from H4480 his habitation H2073.
15 But God H430 will redeem H6299 my soul H5315 from the [fn]power H3027 of Sheol H7585,
For He will receive H3947 me. Selah H5542.
16 Do not be H3372 afraid H3372 when H3588 a man H376 becomes H6238 rich H6238,
When H3588 the [fn]glory H3519 of his house H1004 increases H7235;
17 For when H3588 he dies H4194 he will not H3808 take H3947 any of it H3605;
His [fn]glory H3519 will not descend H3381 after H310 him.
18 For H3588 while he lives H2416 he blesses H1288 his soul H5315—
And men will praise H3034 you when H3588 you do H3190 well H3190 for yourself—
19 But his soul shall go H935 to the generation H1755 of his fathers H1;
They will eternally H5704 H5331 not H3808 see H7200 light H216.
20 Man H120 in his honor H3366, but who does not H3808 understand H995,
