Psalms - Chapter: 49


49:1	Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
49:2	Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
49:3	My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
49:4	I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
49:5	Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
49:6	They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
49:7	None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
49:8	(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
49:9	That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
49:10	For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
49:11	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.
49:12	Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
49:13	This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
49:14	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.
49:15	But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
49:16	Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
49:17	For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
49:18	Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
49:19	He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
49:20	Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.


49:1	To the chaunter, a Psalme for the chyldren of Corah. O heare this, all ye people: pondre it with your eares, all ye that dwell in the worlde.
49:2	Hye and lowe, ryche and poore, one wyth another:
49:3	My mouth shall speake of wysdome, and my hert shall muse of vnderstandyng.
49:4	I wyll enclyne myne eare to the parable, and shew my darcke speach vpon the harpe.
49:5	Wherfore shulde I feare in the dayes of wyckednesse, and when the wyckednesse of my heles compaseth me round about?
49:6	There be some that put theyr in trust their goodes, & boast them selues in the multitude of theyr ryches.
49:7	But no man maye delyuer hys brother, ner make agrement vnto God for hym.
49:8	For it costeth more to redeme theyr soules, so that he must let that alone for euer.
49:9	Yee, though he lyue longe, and se nat the graue.
49:10	For he seeth, that wyse men also dye, and peryshe together, as well as the ignoraunt & folysh, and leaue theyr ryches for other:
49:11	And yet they thynke, that theyr houses shall continue for euer, and that theyr dwelling places shall endure from one generacyon to another, & call the landes after theyr awne names.
49:12	Neuerthelesse, man wyll not abyde in honour, seyng he maye be compared vnto the beastes that peryshe: this is the waye of them.
49:13	Thys is their folyshnesse, and their posterite prayse their sayeng. Sela.
49:14	They lye in the hell lyke shepe, death gnaweth vpon them, and the ryghteous shall haue dominacyon of them in the mornynge: theyr bewtye shall consume in the sepulchre out of theyr dwellynge.
49:15	But God shall delyuer my soule from the place of hell, for he shall receaue me. Sela.
49:16	Be not thou afrayed though one be made ryche, or yf the glory of hys house be increased.
49:17	For he shall cary nothyng awaye with hym when he dyeth, nether shall hys pompe folowe hym:
49:18	For whyle he lyued, he counted hymselfe an happye man: and so longe as thou doest well vnto thy selfe, men wyll speake good of the.
49:19	He shall folowe the generacyons of hys fathers, and shall neuer se lyght.
49:20	Man beynge in honoure hath no vnderstandyng, but is compared vnto the beastes, that peryshe.
