Read Full Chapter
Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.*
Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.*
Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.**
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.**
Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
