Psalm 49:11-13
New International Version - UK
11 Their tombs will remain their houses[a] for ever,
their dwellings for endless generations,
though they had[b] named lands after themselves.
12 People, despite their wealth, do not endure;
they are like the beasts that perish.
13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.[c]
