Psalm 49:13-15
Expanded Bible
13 This is ·what will happen to [L the way/path for] those who trust in themselves
and ·to their followers [or the end of those; L after them] who ·believe them [L are pleased with their mouth]. ·
14 Like sheep, they ·must die [L head to Sheol; C the grave or the underworld],
and death will be their shepherd.
·Honest [Virtuous; Upright] people will ·rule [have dominion] over them in the morning,
and their bodies will ·rot in a grave [waste away in Sheol] far from ·home [their grand homes].
15 But God will ·save [ransom; redeem] my life
and will take me from ·the grave [or the underworld; L Sheol; v. 14]. ·
Psalm 49:13-15
New International Version
Psalm 49:13-15
New International Version
13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,(A)
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.[a]
14 They are like sheep and are destined(B) to die;(C)
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail(D) over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
far from their princely mansions.
15 But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;(E)
he will surely take me to himself.(F)
