American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away;His glory shall not descend after him.
Though while he lived he blessed his soul(And men praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself),
{Hebrew: Thou shall go, or, It shall go.}He shall go to the generation of his fathers; {Or, Who never more see}They shall never see the light.
Man that is in honor, and understandeth not,Is like the beasts that perish.
For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away;His glory shall not descend after him.
Though while he lived he blessed his soul(And men praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself),
{Hebrew: Thou shall go, or, It shall go.}He shall go to the generation of his fathers; {Or, Who never more see}They shall never see the light.
Man that is in honor, and understandeth not,Is like the beasts that perish.
So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
