Psalms 49:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 49:6

Compare all

4 I will incline my ear to a proverb;
I will disclose my¹ dark saying on the harp.

5 Why should I fear in the days of evil,
When the iniquity at my heels surrounds me?

6 Those who ^atrust in their wealth
And boast in the multitude of their riches,

7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother,
Nor ^agive to God a ransom for him—

8 For ^athe redemption of their souls is costly,
And it shall cease forever—

9 That he should continue to live eternally,
And ^anot see the Pit.

10 For he sees wise men die;
Likewise the fool and the senseless person perish,
And leave their wealth to others.
