Mga Awit 49
Magandang Balita Biblia
Kahangalan ang Magtiwala sa Kayamanan
Awit na katha ng angkan ni Korah upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit.
49 Bawat isa ay makinig, makinig ang sino pa man,
kahit saan naroroon ay makinig ang nilalang!
2 Kahit ikaw ay dakila o hamak ang iyong lagay,
makinig na sama-sama ang mahirap at mayaman.
3 Itong aking sasabihi'y salitang may karunungan,
ang isipang ihahayag, mahalagang mga bagay;
4 Ang pansin ko ay itutuon sa bugtong na kasabihan,
sa saliw ng aking alpa'y ihahayag ko ang laman.
5 Hindi ako natatakot sa panahon ng panganib,
kahit pa nga naglipana ang kaaway sa paligid—
6 mga taong naghahambog, sa yaman ay nananalig,
dahilan sa yaman nila'y tumaas ang pag-iisip.
7 Hindi kaya ng sinumang ang sarili ay matubos,
hindi kayang mabayara't tubusin sa kamay ng Diyos.
8 Ang bayad sa kanyang buhay ay halagang sakdal taas;
gaano man ang halagang hawak niya'y hindi sapat
9 upang siya ay mabuhay nang hindi na magwawakas
at sa labi ng libingan ay hindi na mapasadlak.
10 Alam(A) naman niyang lahat ay mamamatay,
kasama ang marunong, maging mangmang o hangal;
sa lahing magmamana, yaman nila'y maiiwan.
11 Doon sila mananahan sa libingan kailanpaman,
kahit sila'y may lupaing pag-aari nilang tunay;
12 maging sikat man ang tao, hinding-hindi maiwasan
katulad din noong hayop, tiyak siyang mamamatay.
13 Masdan ninyo yaong taong nagtiwala sa sarili,
at sa kanyang kayamanan ay nanghawak na mabuti: (Selah)[a]
14 Tulad niya'y mga tupa, sa patayan din hahantong,
itong si Kamatayan ang kanyang magiging pastol.
Ang matuwid, magwawagi kapag sumapit ang umaga,
laban doon sa kaaway na ang bangkay ay bulok na
sa daigdig ng mga patay, na malayo sa kanila.
15 Ngunit ako'y ililigtas, hindi ako babayaan,
aagawin ako ng Diyos sa kamay ng kamatayan. (Selah)[b]
16 Di ka dapat mabagabag, ang tao man ay yumaman,
lumago man nang lumago yaong kanyang kabuhayan;
17 hindi ito madadala kapag siya ay namatay,
ang yaman ay hindi niya madadala sa libingan.
18 At kahit na masiyahan ang tao sa kanyang buhay,
dahilan sa sinusuob ng papuri't nagtagumpay;
19 katulad ng ninuno niya, siya rin ay mamamatay,
masasadlak pa rin siya sa dilim na walang hanggan.
20 Ang tao mang dumakila ay iisa ang hantungan,
katulad ng mga hayop, tiyak siyang mamamatay!

Psalm 49
New International Version
Psalm 49
New International Version
Psalm 49[a]
For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.
1 Hear(A) this, all you peoples;(B)
listen, all who live in this world,(C)
2 both low and high,(D)
rich and poor alike:
3 My mouth will speak words of wisdom;(E)
the meditation of my heart will give you understanding.(F)
4 I will turn my ear to a proverb;(G)
with the harp(H) I will expound my riddle:(I)
5 Why should I fear(J) when evil days come,
when wicked deceivers surround me—
6 those who trust in their wealth(K)
and boast(L) of their great riches?(M)
7 No one can redeem the life of another
or give to God a ransom for them—
8 the ransom(N) for a life is costly,
no payment is ever enough—(O)
9 so that they should live on(P) forever
and not see decay.(Q)
10 For all can see that the wise die,(R)
that the foolish and the senseless(S) also perish,
leaving their wealth(T) to others.(U)
11 Their tombs(V) will remain their houses[b] forever,
their dwellings for endless generations,(W)
though they had[c] named(X) lands after themselves.
13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,(AA)
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.[d]
14 They are like sheep and are destined(AB) to die;(AC)
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail(AD) over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
far from their princely mansions.
15 But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;(AE)
he will surely take me to himself.(AF)
16 Do not be overawed when others grow rich,
when the splendor of their houses increases;
17 for they will take nothing(AG) with them when they die,
their splendor will not descend with them.(AH)
18 Though while they live they count themselves blessed—(AI)
and people praise you when you prosper—
19 they will join those who have gone before them,(AJ)
who will never again see the light(AK) of life.

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