Psalm 49:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ For ^(A)the redemption of ^[a]his soul is costly,
And he should cease trying forever—
⁹ That he should ^(B)live on eternally,
That he should not ^[b](C)undergo decay.

¹⁰ For he sees that even ^(D)wise men die;
The ^(E)stupid and the senseless alike perish
And ^(F)leave their wealth to others.
