Psalm 49:17-19
New American Standard Bible 1995
17 For when he dies he will (A)carry nothing away;
His [a]glory will not descend after him.
18 Though while he lives he (B)congratulates [b]himself—
And though men praise you when you do well for yourself—
19 [c]He shall (C)go to the generation of his fathers;
They will never see (D)the light.
