6They that trust in their wealth, And boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7None [of them] can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give to God a ransom for him;
8(For the redemption of their life is costly, And it faileth for ever;)
9That he should still live alway, That he should not see corruption.
10For he shall see it. Wise men die; The fool and the brutish alike perish, And leave their wealth to others.
11Their 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.
12But man [being] in honor abideth not: He is like the beasts that perish.
