Psalms 49:12-17 New King James Version (NKJV)

12. Nevertheless man, though in honor, does not remain;He is like the beasts that perish.

13. This is the way of those who are foolish,And of their posterity who approve their sayings.Selah

14. Like sheep they are laid in the grave;Death shall feed on them;The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning;And their beauty shall be consumed in the grave, far from their dwelling.

15. But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave,For He shall receive me.Selah

16. Do not be afraid when one becomes 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.
