To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 for the sonsH1121 of KorahH7141. HearH8085 this, all ye peopleH5971; give earH238, all ye inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH2465: {for: or, of}
Both lowH1121+H120 and highH1121+H376, richH6223 and poorH34, togetherH3162.
My mouthH6310 shall speakH1696 of wisdomH2454; and the meditationH1900 of my heartH3820 shall be of understandingH8394.
I will inclineH5186 mine earH241 to a parableH4912: I will openH6605 my dark sayingH2420 upon the harpH3658.
Wherefore should I fearH3372 in the daysH3117 of evilH7451, when the iniquityH5771 of my heelsH6120 shall compassH5437 me about?
They that trustH982 in their wealthH2428, and boastH1984 themselves in the multitudeH7230 of their richesH6239;
None of them canH376 by any meansH6299 redeemH6299 his brotherH251, nor giveH5414 to GodH430 a ransomH3724 for him:
(For the redemptionH6306 of their soulH5315 is preciousH3365, and it ceasethH2308 for everH5769:)
That he should still liveH2421 for everH5331, and not seeH7200 corruptionH7845.
For he seethH7200 that wise menH2450 dieH4191, likewiseH3162 the foolH3684 and the brutish personH1198 perishH6, and leaveH5800 their wealthH2428 to othersH312.
Their inwardH7130 thought is, that their housesH1004 shall continue for everH5769, and their dwellingH4908 places to allH1755 generationsH1755; they callH7121 their landsH127 after their own namesH8034. {all…: Heb. generation and generation}
Nevertheless manH120 being in honourH3366 abidethH3885 not: he is likeH4911 the beastsH929 that perishH1820.
This their wayH1870 is their follyH3689: yet their posterityH310 approveH7521 their sayingsH6310. SelahH5542. {approve…: Heb. delight in their mouth}
Like sheepH6629 they are laidH8371 in the graveH7585; deathH4194 shall feedH7462 on them; and the uprightH3477 shall have dominionH7287 over them in the morningH1242; and their beautyH6697+H6736 shall consumeH1086 in the graveH7585 from their dwellingH2073. {beauty: or, strength} {in the grave from…: or, the grave being an habitation to every one of them}
But GodH430 will redeemH6299 my soulH5315 from the powerH3027 of the graveH7585: for he shall receiveH3947 me. SelahH5542. {power: Heb. hand} {the grave: or, hell}
Be not thou afraidH3372 when oneH376 is made richH6238, when the gloryH3519 of his houseH1004 is increasedH7235;
For when he diethH4194 he shall carry nothing awayH3947: his gloryH3519 shall not descendH3381 afterH310 him.
Though while he livedH2416 he blessedH1288 his soulH5315: and men will praiseH3034 thee, when thou doest wellH3190 to thyself. {while…: Heb. in his life}
He shall goH935 to the generationH1755 of his fathersH1; they shall neverH3808+H5331 seeH7200 lightH216. {He…: Heb. The soul shall}
ManH120 that is in honourH3366, and understandethH995 not, is likeH4911 the beastsH929 that perishH1820.
