19:049:009 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
19:049:010 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
19:049:011 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.
19:049:012 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the
beasts that perish.
19:049:013 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve
their sayings. Selah.
19:049:014 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.
19:049:015 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for
he shall receive me. Selah.
19:049:016 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of
his house is increased;
19:049:017 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall
not descend after him.
19:049:018 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise
thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
