Psalm 49:13-15
New King James Version
13 This is the way of those who are (A)foolish,
And of their posterity who approve their sayings. Selah
14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave;
Death shall feed on them;
(B)The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning;
(C)And their beauty shall be consumed in [a]the grave, far from their dwelling.
15 But God (D)will redeem my soul from the power of [b]the grave,
For He shall (E)receive me. Selah

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)
