Psalm 49:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ He will not take anything with him when he dies.
His greatness cannot follow him.
¹⁸ Even though he blesses himself while he is alive
(and they praise you when you do well for yourself),
¹⁹ he must join the generation of his ancestors,
who will never see light ⌞again⌟.
