Selah. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-14|14]] Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-15|15]] But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-16|16]] Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased; \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-17|17]] For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-18|18]] Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-19|19]] He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light. \\ [[commentaar:psalmen49-20|20]] Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish. ^ [[psalmen48| vorig hoofdstuk]] ^ [[psalmen50|volgend hoofdstuk]] ^
