Psalm 49:8-15
English Standard Version
8 for (A)the ransom of their life is costly
and can never suffice,
9 that he should live on forever
and (B)never see the pit.
10 For he sees (C)that even the wise die;
(D)the fool and the stupid alike must perish
and (E)leave their wealth to others.
11 Their (F)graves are their homes forever,[a]
their dwelling places (G)to all generations,
though they (H)called lands by their own names.
12 Man in his pomp (I)will not remain;
(J)he is like the beasts that perish.
13 This is the path of those who have (K)foolish confidence;
yet after them people approve of their boasts.[b] Selah
14 Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol;
death shall be their shepherd,
and the upright (L)shall rule over them in the morning.
(M)Their form shall be consumed (N)in Sheol, with no place to dwell.
15 But God will (O)ransom my soul from the power of Sheol,
for he will (P)receive me. Selah
