Psalms 49:2-9

Psalms 49:2-9

[2] Both low  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  [6] They that trust  in their wealth,  and boast  themselves in the multitude  of their riches;  [7] None of them can  by any means  his brother,  nor give  to God  a ransom  [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.
