Psalms 49:6-14 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

6. Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of their riches, Do shew themselves foolish.

7. A brother doth no one at all ransom, He doth not give to God his atonement.

8. And precious [is] the redemption of their soul, And it hath ceased--to the age.

9. And still he liveth for ever, He seeth not the pit.

10. For he seeth wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left to others their wealth.

11. Their heart [is]: Their houses [are] to the age, Their tabernacles to all generations. They proclaimed their names over the lands.

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.
