49:1 To the chief Musician 5329 8764, A Psalm 4210 for the sons 1121 of Korah 7141. Hear 8085 8798 this, all [ye] people 5971; give ear 238 8685, all [ye] inhabitants 3427 8802 of the world 2465:(for: or, of)

49:2 Both low 1121 120 and high 1121 376, rich 6223 and poor 34, together 3162.

49:3 My mouth 6310 shall speak 1696 8762 of wisdom 2454; and the meditation 1900 of my heart 3820 [shall be] of understanding 8394.

49:4 I will incline 5186 8686 mine ear 241 to a parable 4912: I will open 6605 8799 my dark saying 2420 upon the harp 3658.

49:5 Wherefore should I fear 3372 8799 in the days 3117 of evil 7451, [when] the iniquity 5771 of my heels 6120 shall compass 5437 8799 me about?

49:6 They that trust 982 8802 in their wealth 2428, and boast 1984 8691 themselves in the multitude 7230 of their riches 6239;

49:7 None [of them] can 376 by any means 6299 8800 redeem 6299 8799 his brother 251, nor give 5414 8799 to God 430 a ransom 3724 for him:

49:8 (For the redemption 6306 of their soul 5315 [is] precious 3365 8799, and it ceaseth 2308 8804 for ever 5769:)

49:9 That he should still live 2421 8799 for ever 5331, [and] not see 7200 8799 corruption 7845.

49:10 For he seeth 7200 8799 [that] wise men 2450 die 4191 8799, likewise 3162 the fool 3684 and the brutish person 1198 perish 6 8799, and leave 5800 8804 their wealth 2428 to others 312.

49:11 Their inward 7130 thought [is, that] their houses 1004 [shall continue] for ever 5769, [and] their dwelling 4908 places to all 1755 generations 1755; they call 7121 8804 [their] lands 127 after their own names 8034.(all…: Heb. generation and generation)

49:12 Nevertheless man 120 [being] in honour 3366 abideth 3885 8799 not: he is like 4911 8738 the beasts 929 [that] perish 1820 8738.

49:13 This their way 1870 [is] their folly 3689: yet their posterity 310 approve 7521 8799 their sayings 6310. Selah 5542.(approve…: Heb. delight in their mouth)

49:14 Like sheep 6629 they are laid 8371 8804 in the grave 7585; death 4194 shall feed 7462 8799 on them; and the upright 3477 shall have dominion 7287 8799 over them in the morning 1242; and their beauty 6697 8675 6736 shall consume 1086 8763 in the grave 7585 from their dwelling 2073.(beauty: or, strength)(in the grave from…: or, the grave being an habitation to every one of them)

49:15 But God 430 will redeem 6299 8799 my soul 5315 from the power 3027 of the grave 7585: for he shall receive 3947 8799 me. Selah 5542.(power: Heb. hand)(the grave: or, hell)

49:16 Be not thou afraid 3372 8799 when one 376 is made rich 6238 8686, when the glory 3519 of his house 1004 is increased 7235 8799;

49:17 For when he dieth 4194 he shall carry nothing away 3947 8799: his glory 3519 shall not descend 3381 8799 after 310 him.

49:18 Though while he lived 2416 he blessed 1288 8762 his soul 5315: and [men] will praise 3034 8686 thee, when thou doest well 3190 8686 to thyself.(while…: Heb. in his life)

49:19 He shall go 935 8799 to the generation 1755 of his fathers 1; they shall never 3808 5331 see 7200 8799 light 216.(He…: Heb. The soul shall)

49:20 Man 120 [that is] in honour 3366, and understandeth 995 8799 not, is like 4911 8738 the beasts 929 [that] perish 1820 8738.
