Darby Translation 1890

Psalms 49:11-17 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

11. Their inward thought is, that their houses are for ever, their dwelling-places from generation to generation: they call the lands after their own names.

12. Nevertheless, man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.

13. This their way is their folly, yet they that come after them delight in their sayings. Selah.

14. Like sheep are they laid in Sheol: Death feedeth on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their comeliness shall be for Sheol to consume, that there be no habitation for them.

15. But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol: for he will receive me. Selah.

16. Be not afraid when a man becometh rich, when the glory of his house is increased:

17. For when he dieth, he shall carry nothing away; his glory shall not descend after him.
