Psalm 49:18-20

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ Though he congratulated his soul while he was living
—and people will praise you when you do well for yourself—
¹⁹ it^[a] will go to the generation of his fathers.
Never will they see light.
²⁰ Humankind in its pomp, but does not understand,
is like the beasts that perish.
