5(49:6) Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my oppressors encompasseth me?—
6(49:7) Of those that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves of the multitude of their riches?
7(49:8) No one can in any wise redeem his brother, nor can he give to God redemption money for himself;
8(49:9) For the ransom of their soul is too costly, and it is omitted for ever.
9(49:10) And should he still live for ever? not see the pit?
10(49:11) For he must see that wise men die, that together the fool and the brutish person perish and leave to others their wealth.
11(49:12) Their inward thought is, that their houses are to be for ever, their dwelling-places, from generation to generation; they call them by their own names in various countries.
12(49:13) Nevertheless man in his splendor endureth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
13(49:14) This is their way, their folly: yet their posterity will take pleasure in their sayings. Selah.
14(49:15) Like flocks are they thrust into the nether world; death will feed them; but the upright shall have dominion over them in that morning, and their form wasteth away in the nether world, taken away from their own dwelling.
