Psalm 49:9-11

Revised Standard Version

⁹that he should continue to live on for ever,
and never see the Pit.

¹⁰Yea, he shall see that even the wise die,
    the fool and the stupid alike must perish
    and leave their wealth to others.
¹¹Their graves^[a] are their homes for ever,
    their dwelling places to all generations,
    though they named lands their own.
