Salmos 49 King James Bible (1769) | 20 versitos |
1 Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
9 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.
10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.
12 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.
13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
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.
15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.
20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

Salmos 49,1-20

Psalm XLIX.

1 An earnest perswasion to build the faith of Resurrection, not on worldly power, but on God. 16 Worldly prosperity is not to be admired.
To the chiefe Musician, a Psalme [ Or, of.] for the sonnes of Korah.
1 Heare this, all yee people, giue eare all yee inhabitants of the world:
2 Both low, and high, rich and poore together.
3 My mouth shall speake of wisedome: and the meditation of my heart shalbe of vnderstanding.
4 [ Mat_13:35; Psa_78:2.] I will incline mine eare to a parable; I will open my darke saying vpon the harpe.
5 Wherefore should I feare in the daies of euill, when the iniquitie of my heeles shall compasse me about?
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselues in the multitude of their riches:
7 None of them can by any meanes redeeme his brother, nor giue to God a ransome for him:
8 (For the redemption of their soule is precious, and it ceaseth for euer.)
9 That he should still liue for euer, and not see corruption.
10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the foole, and the brutish person perish, and leaue their wealth to others.
11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for euer, and their dwelling places [ Hebrew: to generation and generation.] to all generations; they call their lands after their owne names.
12 Neuerthelesse man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beastes that perish.
13 This their way is their follie; yet their posteritie [ Hebrew: delight in their mouth.] approue their sayings. Selah.
14 Like sheepe they are layd in the graue, death shall feede on them; and

[Gods Maiestie.]

the vpright shall haue dominion ouer them in the morning, and their [ Or, strength.] beauty shall consume [ Or, the graue being an habitation to euery one of them.] in the graue, from their dwelling.
15 But God will redeeme my soule [ Hebrew: from the hand of the graue.] from the power of the [ Or, hell.] graue; for he shall receiue me. Selah.
16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased.
17 [ Job_27:19.] For when he dieth, he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18 Though [ Hebrew: in his life.] whiles he liued, he blessed his soule: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thy selfe.
19 [ Hebrew the soule shall goe .] Hee shall goe to the generation of his fathers, they shall neuer see light.
20 Man that is in honour and vnderstandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
