Psalms 49:2-9
-
2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
-
3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
-
4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
-
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
-
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
-
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
-
8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
-
9 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
