< Psalms 49 >

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah. Hear this, all you peoples; give ear, all you inhabitants of the world,
To the choirmaster - of [the] sons of Korah a psalm. Hear this O all the peoples give ear O all [the] inhabitants of [the] world.
2 both low and high, rich and poor together.
Both [the] children of humankind as well as [the] children of man alike [the] rich and [the] needy.
3 My mouth will speak wisdom and the meditation of my heart will be of understanding.
Mouth my it will speak wisdom and [the] meditation of heart my [will be] understanding.
4 I will incline my ear to a parable; I will begin my parable with the harp.
I will incline to a proverb ear my I will open with a harp riddle my.
5 Why should I fear the days of evil, when iniquity surrounds me at my heels?
Why? will I fear in days of trouble [the] iniquity of heels my it surrounds me.
6 Why should I fear those who trust in their wealth and boast about the amount of their riches?
Those relying on wealth their and in [the] greatness of rich[es] their they boast.
7 It is certain that no one can redeem his brother or give God a ransom for him,
A brother not certainly he will ransom anyone not he will give to God ransom his.
8 For the redemption of one's life is costly, and no one can pay what we owe.
So it may be costly [the] ransom of life their and he will cease for ever.
9 No one can live forever so that his body should not decay.
So he may live still to perpetuity not he will see the pit.
10 For he will see decay. Wise men die; the fool and the brute alike perish and leave their wealth to others.
For anyone will see - wise [people] they die alike a fool and a stupid [person] they perish and they leave to other [people] wealth their.
11 Their inner thought is that their families will continue forever, and the places where they live, to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.
Inner being their houses their - for ever dwelling places their to a generation and a generation they called with names their on lands.
12 But man, having wealth, does not remain alive; he is like the beasts that perish.
And humankind in honor not he remains he is like like the animals [which] they are destroyed.
13 This, their way, is their folly; yet after them, men approve of their sayings. (Selah)
This [is] way their stupidity [belongs] to them and after them - in mouth their they take delight (Selah)
14 Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol, and death will be their shepherd. The upright will rule over them in the morning, and their bodies will be consumed in Sheol, with no place for them to live. (Sheol h7585)
Like sheep - for Sheol they have been appointed death it will shepherd them and they ruled over them upright [people] - to the morning (and form their *Q(K)*) [is] for [the] consuming of Sheol from lofty abode of him. (Sheol h7585)
15 But God will redeem my life from the power of Sheol; he will receive me. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Surely God he will redeem life my from [the] hand of Sheol for he will take me (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
16 Do not be afraid when one becomes rich, and the glory of his house increases.
May not you fear if he will become rich anyone if it will increase [the] honor of house his.
17 For when he dies he will take nothing away; his glory will not go down after him.
For not in death his he will take anything not it will go down after him honor his.
18 He blessed his soul while he lived— and men praise you when you live for yourself—
For self his in life his he blessed and people praise you if you will do well to yourself.
19 he will go to the generation of his fathers and they will never see the light again.
It will go to [the] generation of ancestors his until perpetuity not they will see light.
20 One who has wealth but no understanding is like the beasts, which perish.
Humankind with honor and not he understands he is like like the animals [which] they are destroyed.
