Psalms 49:18 Context
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. 19Hee shall goe to the generation of his fathers, they shall neuer see light. 20Man that is in honour and vnderstandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
