Psalms 49:10-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 49
10
For he sees
that even
wise people die;
The foolish and the stupid alike perish
And leave their wealth to others.
11
Their inner thought is
that
their houses are forever
And
their dwelling places to all generations;
They have named their lands after their own names.
12
But man in
his
splendor will not endure;
He is like the animals that perish.
13
This is the way of those who are foolish,
And of those after them who approve their words.
Selah
14
Like sheep they sink down to Sheol;
Death will be their shepherd;
And the upright will rule over them in the morning,
And their form shall be for Sheol to consume
So that they have no lofty home.
15
But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol,
For He will receive me.
Selah
16
Do not be afraid when a person becomes rich,
When the splendor of his house is increased;
King James Version
Chapter 49
10
For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11
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.
12
Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
13
This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
14
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.
15
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
16
Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 49
10
For one can see that the wise die;
the foolish and stupid also pass away.
Then they leave their wealth to others.
11
Their graves are their permanent homes,
their dwellings from generation to generation,
though they have named estates after themselves.
12
But despite his assets, mankind will not last;
he is like the animals that perish.
13
This is the way of those who are arrogant,
and of their followers,
who approve of their words.
Selah
14
Like sheep they are headed for Sheol;
Death will shepherd them.
The upright will rule over them in the morning,
and their form will waste away in Sheol,
far from their lofty abode.
15
But God will redeem me
from the power of Sheol,
for he will take me.
Selah
16
Do not be afraid when a person gets rich,
when the wealth of his house increases.
New Living Translation
Chapter 49
10
Those who are wise must finally die,
just like the foolish and senseless,
leaving all their wealth behind.
11
The grave is their eternal home,
where they will stay forever.
They may name their estates after themselves,
12
but their fame will not last.
They will die, just like animals.
13
This is the fate of fools,
though they are remembered as being wise.
Interlude
14
Like sheep, they are led to the grave,
where death will be their shepherd.
In the morning the godly will rule over them.
Their bodies will rot in the grave,
far from their grand estates.
15
But as for me, God will redeem my life.
He will snatch me from the power of the grave.
Interlude
16
So don’t be dismayed when the wicked grow rich
and their homes become ever more splendid.
English Standard Version
Chapter 49
10
For he sees that even the wise die;
the fool and the stupid alike must perish
and leave their wealth to others.
11
Their graves are their homes forever,
their dwelling places to all generations,
though they called lands by their own names.
12
Man in his pomp will not remain;
he is like the beasts that perish.
13
This is the path of those who have foolish confidence;
yet after them people approve of their boasts.
Selah
14
Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol;
death shall be their shepherd,
and the upright shall rule over them in the morning.
Their form shall be consumed in Sheol, with no place to dwell.
15
But God will ransom my soul from the power of Sheol,
for he will receive me.
Selah
16
Be not afraid when a man becomes rich,
when the glory of his house increases.
New International Version
Chapter 49
10
For all can see that the wise die,
that the foolish and the senseless also perish,
leaving their wealth to others.
11
Their tombs will remain their houses forever,
their dwellings for endless generations,
though they had named lands after themselves.
12
People, despite their wealth, do not endure;
they are like the beasts that perish.
13
This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.
14
They are like sheep and are destined to die;
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
far from their princely mansions.
15
But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;
he will surely take me to himself.
16
Do not be overawed when others grow rich,
when the splendor of their houses increases;
New King James Version
Chapter 49
10
For he sees wise men die;
Likewise the fool and the senseless person perish,
And leave their wealth to others.
11
Their inner thought
is that
their houses
will last
forever,
Their dwelling places to all generations;
They call
their
lands after their own names.
12
Nevertheless man,
though
in honor, does not remain;
He is like the beasts
that
perish.
13
This is the way of those who
are
foolish,
And of their posterity who approve their sayings.
Selah
14
Like sheep they are laid in the grave;
Death shall feed on them;
The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning;
And their beauty shall be consumed in the grave, far from their dwelling.
15
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave,
For He shall receive me.
Selah
16
Do not be afraid when one becomes rich,
When the glory of his house is increased;
