Psalm 49:13-15
Legacy Standard Bible
13 This is the (A)way of those who are foolish,
And of those after them who (B)are pleased [a]with their words. [b]Selah.
14 As sheep they are appointed (C)for Sheol;
Death will shepherd them;
And the (D)upright shall have dominion over them in the morning,
And their form shall be for Sheol (E)to consume,
Far away from his habitation.
15 But God will (F)redeem my soul from the [c]power of Sheol,
For (G)He will receive me. Selah.

Psalm 49:13-15
New International Version
13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,(A)
and of their followers, who approve their sayings.[a]
14 They are like sheep and are destined(B) to die;(C)
death will be their shepherd
(but the upright will prevail(D) over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
far from their princely mansions.
15 But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;(E)
he will surely take me to himself.(F)
