Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
14 They are appointed as a flock for Sheol. Death shall be their shepherd. The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning. Their beauty shall be for Sheol to consume, That there be no habitation for it.
15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol, For he will receive me. Selah.
16 Don`t be afraid when a man is made rich, When the glory of his house is increased.
17 For when he dies he shall carry nothing away. His glory shall not descend after him.
18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul -- And men praise you when you do well for yourself --
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers. They shall never see the light.
20 A man who has riches without understanding, Is like the animals that perish. Psalm 50 A Psalm by Asaph.
