Dagiti Salmo 49

1 Denggenyo daytoy, dakayo amin a tattao; yallingagyo ti lapayagyo, dakayo amin nga agnanaed iti lubong,

“To the chief musician, by the sons of Korach, a psalm.” Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the perishable world:

2 nanumo ken natan-ok, nabaknang ken napanglaw.

Both the sons of the low and the sons of the high, rich and needy, altogether.

3 Isaonto ti ngiwatko ti kinasirib, ken ti panangutob toy pusok ket mangiturong iti pannakawat.

My mouth shall speak wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

4 Yallingagko ti lapayagko iti maysa a pangngarig; Irugik ti panggarigko bayat iti panagtukarko ti arpa.

I will incline my ear to a parable: I will open with the harp my riddle.

5 Apay koma nga agbutengak kadagiti aldaw ti dakes, no palawlawan ti kinadakes dagiti mukodko?

Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my oppressors encompasseth me?—

6 Dagiti agtalek iti sanikuada ken mangipannakel iti kinaadu ti kinabaknangda-

Of those that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves of the multitude of their riches?

7 Sigurado nga awan ti siasinoman a makabael a mangsubbot iti kabsatna a lalaki wenno agited ti bayad iti Dios para kenkuana,

No one can in any wise redeem his brother, nor can he give to God redemption money for himself;

8 Gapu ta iti pannakasubbot ti biag ti maysa a tao ket nangina, ken awan ti siasinoman a makabael a mangbayad iti inutangtayo.

For the ransom of their soul is too costly, and it is omitted for ever.

9 Awan ti siasinoman a mabalin nga agbiag iti agnanayon tapno saan nga agrupsa ti bagina.

And should he still live for ever? not see the pit?

10 Ta makitananto ti panagrupsa. Dagiti masirib a tattao ket matay; ti maag ken ti nengneng agpada a mapukaw ken panawanda dagiti sanikuada iti dadduma.

For he must see that wise men die, that together the fool and the brutish person perish and leave to others their wealth.

11 Iti kapanunotanda ket agnanayon dagiti pamiliada, ken dagiti lugar a pagnanaedanda agingga iti amin a kaputotanda; pinanagananda dagiti dagada sigun iti naganda.

Their inward thought is, that their houses are to be for ever, their dwelling-places, from generation to generation; they call them by their own names in [various] countries.

12 Ngem ti tao nga addaan kinabaknang ket saan nga agtalinaed a sibibiag; kasla isuna kadagiti nauyong nga ayup a mapukaw.

Nevertheless man in [his] splendor endureth not: he is like the beasts [that] perish.

13 Daytoy a wagas iti panagbiagda, ket kinamaagda; ngem kalpasan a matayda, annamonganto dagiti tattao dagiti ibagbagada. (Selah)

This is their way, their folly: yet their posterity will take pleasure in their sayings. (Selah)

14 Nadutokanda a kas iti maysa nga arban nga agturong idiay Seol, ti patayto ti pastorda, ti nalinteg ti adda pannakabalinna a mangituray kadakuada iti bigbigat; alun-unento ti Seol dagiti bagida ket awanto ti lugar sadiay a mabalinda a pagnaedan. (Sheol h7585)

Like flocks are they thrust into the nether world; death will feed them; but the upright shall have dominion over them in that morning, and their form wasteth away in the nether world, [taken away] from their own dwelling. (Sheol h7585)

15 Ngem subbotento ti Dios ti biagko manipud iti pannakabalin ti Seol; awatennakto. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)

But God will redeem my soul from the power of the nether world; for he will take me away. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)

16 Saanka nga agbuteng no ti maysa a tao ket bumaknang, no dumakkel ti pannakablin iti balayna;

Be not thou afraid when a man becometh rich, when the glory of his house is increased;

17 ta inton matay isuna awanto iti maitugotna, ti pannakabalinna ket saananto a kadua a bumaba.

For when he dieth he can take nothing away; his glory will not descend after him.

18 Indayawna ti kararuana bayat iti panagbiagna- ken raraemendaka dagiti tattao no agbibiagka a para iti bagim-

For though he bless his soul during his life, and men praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself:

19 mapanto isuna kadagiti kaputotan dagiti kapuonanna ket saandanton pulos a makita pay ti lawag.

She shall go to the generation of his fathers, unto eternity will these never see light.

20 Ti tao nga adda kinabaknangna ngem awan pannakaawatna ket kasla la kadagiti nauyong nga ayup, nga agpukaw.

Man, though in splendor, who understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish. °
