Psalms 49:14
Compare all
12 Nevertheless man, though in honor, does not1 remain;
He is like the beasts that perish. 
13 This is the way of those who are afoolish,
And of their posterity who approve their sayings. Selah 
14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave;
Death shall feed on them;
aThe upright shall have dominion over them in the morning;
bAnd their beauty shall be consumed in1 the grave, far from their dwelling. 
15 But God awill redeem my soul from the power of1 the grave,
For He shall breceive me. Selah 
16 Do not be afraid when one becomes rich,
When the glory of his house is increased;

Psalms 49:14

Sheep - Which for a season are in sweet pastures, but at the owner's pleasure are led away to the slaughter. Death - The first death shall consume their bodies, and the second death shall devour their souls. The upright - Good men whom they abused at their pleasure. Morning - In the day of the general judgment, and the resurrection of the dead. Beauty - All their glory and felicity. Dwelling - They shall be hurried from their large and stately mansions, into a close and dark grave.
