Psalms 49:16 Context
14Like sheepe they are layd in the graue, death shall feede on them; and the vpright shall haue dominion ouer them in the morning, and their beauty shall consume in the graue, from their dwelling. 15But God will redeeme my soule from the power of the graue; for he shall receiue me. Selah. 16Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased. 17For when he dieth, he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him. 18Though whiles he liued, he blessed his soule: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thy selfe.
