Psalm 49
Elige una versificación para comparar
Vers 1
all in the world that dwell;
Both low and high, both rich and poor.
My mouth shall wisdom tell:
Vers 2
I will incline mine ear
To parables, and on the harp
my sayings dark declare.
Vers 3
why should I, fearing, doubt?
When of my heels th’ iniquity
shall compass me about.
Vers 4
their confidence do pitch,
And boast themselves, because they are
become exceeding rich:
Vers 5
redeem by any way;
Nor can he unto God for him
sufficient ransom pay,
Vers 6
and it can never be,)
That still he should for ever live,
and not corruption see.
Vers 7
and brutish fools also
Do perish; and their wealth, when dead,
to others they let go.
Vers 8
and dwelling-places shall
Stand through all ages; they their lands
by their own names do call.
Vers 9
abide continually;
But passing hence, may be compar’d
unto the beasts that die.
Vers 10
their wisdom and their way;
Yet their posterity approve
what they do fondly say.
Vers 11
and death shall them devour;
And in the morning upright men
shall over them have pow’r:
Vers 12
consume within the grave.
But from hell’s hand God will me free,
for he shall me receive.
Vers 13
enriched thou dost see,
Nor when the glory of his house
advanced is on high:
Vers 14
when death his days doth end;
Nor shall his glory after him
into the grave descend.
Vers 15
whilst he on earth did live;
(And when thou to thyself dost well,
men will thee praises give;)
Vers 16
they never shall see light.
Man honour’d wanting knowledge is
like beasts that perish quite.
