Psalms 49:12-18 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

12. And man in honour doth not remain, He hath been like the beasts, they have been cut off.

13. This their way [is] folly for them, And their posterity with their sayings are pleased. Selah.

14. As sheep for Sheol they have set themselves, Death doth afflict them, And the upright rule over them in the morning, And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for him.

15. Only, God doth ransom my soul from the hand of Sheol, For He doth receive me. Selah.

16. Fear not, when one maketh wealth, When the honour of his house is abundant,

17. For at his death he receiveth nothing, His honour goeth not down after him.

18. For his soul in his life he blesseth, (And they praise thee when thou dost well for thyself.)
