Psalm 49:4-6

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴ I will submit and consent to a parable or proverb; to the music of a lyre I will unfold my riddle (my problem).

⁵ Why should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of those who would supplant me surrounds me on every side,

⁶ Even of those who trust in and lean on their wealth and boast of the abundance of their riches?
