Psalm 49:17-19
New International Reader's Version
17 They won’t take anything with them when they die.
Their riches won’t go down to the grave with them.
18 While they lived, they believed they were blessed.
People praised them when things were going well for them.
19 But they will die, like their people of long ago.
They will never again see the light of life.
Psalm 49:17-19
New International Version
17 for they will take nothing(A) with them when they die,
their splendor will not descend with them.(B)
18 Though while they live they count themselves blessed—(C)
and people praise you when you prosper—
19 they will join those who have gone before them,(D)
who will never again see the light(E) of life.
