Likewise the fool and the senseless person perish,
And leave their wealth to others.
Their dwelling places to all generations;
They acall their lands after their own names.
And of their posterity who approve their sayings. Selah
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.
| << Psalms 49:11 | Psalms 49:13 >> |
