SEV Biblia, Chapter 49:14
Como ovejas son puestos en la sepultura; la muerte los pastorea; y los rectos se enseñorearán de ellos por la mañana; y se consumirá su bien parecer en la sepultura de su morada.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 48:14
Verse 14. Like sheep they are laid in the grave ] lwal lishol, into sheol, the place of separate spirits. Death shall feed on them µ[ry twm maveth yirem, "Death shall feed them!" What an astonishing change! All the good things of life were once their portion, and they lived only to eat and drink; and now they live in sheol, and Death himself feeds them? and with what? Damnation.
Houbigant reads the verse thus: "Like sheep they shall be laid in the place of the dead; death shall feed on them; their morning shepherds rule over them; and their flesh is to be consumed. Destruction is to them in their folds."
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-20 - Believers should not fear death. The distinction of men's outwar conditions, how great soever in life, makes none at death; but the difference of men's spiritual states, though in this life it may see of small account, yet at and after death is very great. The soul i often put for the life. The God of life, who was its Creator at first can and will be its Redeemer at last. It includes the salvation of the soul from eternal ruin. Believers will be under strong temptation to envy the prosperity of sinners. Men will praise thee, and cry thee up as having done well for thyself in raising an estate and family. But what will it avail to be approved of men, if God condemn us? Those tha are rich in the graces and comforts of the Spirit, have something of which death cannot strip them, nay, which death will improve; but a for worldly possessions, as we brought nothing into the world, so it is certain that we shall carry nothing out; we must leave all to others The sum of the whole matter is, that it can profit a man nothing to gain the whole world, to become possessed of all its wealth and all it power, if he lose his own soul, and is cast away for want of that holy and heavenly wisdom which distinguishes man from the brutes, in his life and at his death. And are there men who can prefer the lot of the rich sinner to that of poor Lazarus, in life and death, and to eternity? Assuredly there are. What need then we have of the teachin of the Holy Ghost; when, with all our boasted powers, we are prone to such folly in the most important of all concerns __________________________________________________________________
