Psalms 49:15-20 English Revised Version (ERV)

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

16. Be not thou afraid when one is made 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.

18. Though while he lived he blessed his soul, and men praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself,

19. He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see the light.

20. Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
