The Psalms Of David 49:8-15 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

8. (for the redemption of their soul is of great price, and they shall never pay it)

9. that he should still live for ever and not see corruption.

10. For he sees that all the wise men die, likewise the fool and the ignorant perish and leave their wealth to others.

11. Their inward thought is that their houses are eternal and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.

12. Nevertheless man will not abide forever in honour; he is like the beasts that are cut off.

13. This their way is their folly; yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.

14. Like sheep they are laid in Sheol; death shall feed on them, and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning, and their beauty shall be consumed in the grave from their dwelling.

15. Surely God will ransom my soul from the hand of Sheol when he shall take me. Selah.
