“The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.”
King James Version (KJV)
27:19 Lie down - In death. Not gathered - Instead of that honourable interment with his fathers, his carcase shall lie like dung upon the earth. One openeth his eyes - That is, while a man can open his eyes, in the twinkling of an eye. He is as if he had never been, dead and gone, and his family and name extinct with him.
The rich man shall lie downe, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not:
