New Testament

Psalms 49:16-20 New Century Version (NCV)

16. Don’t be afraid of rich peoplebecause their houses are more beautiful.

17. They don’t take anything to the grave;their wealth won’t go down with them.

18. Even though they were praised when they were alive—and people may praise you when you succeed—

19. they will go to where their ancestors are.They will never see light again.

20. Rich people with no understandingare just like animals that die.
