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

13 This is the way of those who are (A)foolish,
And of their posterity who approve their sayings. Selah
14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave;
Death shall feed on them;
(B)The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning;
(C)And their beauty shall be consumed in [b]the grave, far from their dwelling.
