Psalm 49:14-16
Easy-to-Read Version
14 They are just like sheep, but the grave will be their pen.
Death will be their shepherd.
When morning comes, the good people will enjoy victory,
as the bodies of the proud slowly rot in the grave,
far away from their fancy houses.
15 But God will pay the price to save me from the grave.
He will take me to be with him. Selah
16 Don’t be afraid of people just because they are rich.
Don’t be afraid of people just because they have big, fancy houses.
Psalm 49:14-16
New International Version
14 They are like sheep and are destined(A) to die;(B)
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail(C) 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;(D)
he will surely take me to himself.(E)
16 Do not be overawed when others grow rich,
when the splendor of their houses increases;
