Psalm 49:4
World English Bible
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
1 Hear this, all you peoples. Listen, all you inhabitants of the world,
2 Both low and high, Rich and poor together.
3 My mouth will speak words of wisdom. My heart shall utter understanding.
4 I will incline my ear to a proverb. I will open my riddle on the harp.
5 Why should I fear in the days of evil, When iniquity at my heels surrounds me?
6 Those who trust in their wealth, And boast in the multitude of their riches --
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give God a ransom for him.
