Psalm 49:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 But man shall not continue in honor; he is like the [a]beasts that die.
13 This their way uttereth their foolishness; yet their posterity [b]delight in their talk. Selah.
14 [c]Like sheep they lie in grave; [d]death devoureth them; and the righteous shall have domination over them in the [e]morning; for their beauty shall consume, when they shall go from their house to grave.

Psalm 49:12-14
New International Version
13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,(C)
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.[a]
14 They are like sheep and are destined(D) to die;(E)
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail(F) over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
far from their princely mansions.
