14 [a]Like sheep they lie in grave; [b]death devoureth them; and the righteous shall have domination over them in the [c]morning; for their beauty shall consume, when they shall go from their house to grave.

15 But God shall deliver my soul from the power of the grave; [d]for he will receive me. Selah.

16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, and when the glory of his house is increased.
