3. All you that are earthborn, and you sons of men: both rich and poor together.
4. My mouth shall speak wisdom: and the meditation of my heart understanding.
5. I will incline my ear to a parable; I will open my proposition on the psaltery.
6. Why shall I fear in the evil day? the iniquity of my heel shall encompass me.
7. They that trust in their own strength, and glory in the multitude of their riches,
8. No brother can redeem, nor shall man redeem: he shall not give to God his ransom,
9. Nor the price of the redemption of his soul: and shall labour for ever,
10. and shall still live unto the end.
11. He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: the senseless and the fool shall perish together: And they shall leave their riches to strangers:
12. and their sepulchres shall be their houses for ever. Their dwelling places to all generations: they have called their lands by their names.
13. And man when he was in honour did not understand; he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them.
