Lyrics
1 Hear this, all ye
people; give ear, all ye
inhabitants of the world:
2 Both low and high, 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 me about?
6 They that trust in their wealth,
and boast themselves in the
multitude of their riches;
7 None of them can by any means
redeem his brother, nor give to
God a ransom for him:
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.
10 For he seeth that wise men die,
likewise the fool and the brutish
person perish, and leave their
wealth to others.
11 Their inward thought is, that
their houses shall continue for
ever, and their dwelling places to
all generations; they call their
lands after their own names.
12 Nevertheless man being in
honour abideth not: he is like the
beasts that perish.
13 This their way is their folly:
yet their posterity approve their
sayings. Selah.
14 Like sheep they are laid in the
grave; death shall feed on them;
and the upright shall have
dominion over them in the morning;
and their beauty shall consume in
the grave from their dwelling.
15 But God will redeem my soul
from the power of the grave: for
he shall receive me. Selah.
16 Be not thou afraid when one is
made rich, when the glory of his
house is increased;
17 For when he dieth he shall
carry nothing away: his glory
shall not descend after him.
18 Though while he lived he
blessed his soul: and men will
praise thee, when thou doest well
to thyself.
19 He shall go to the generation
of his fathers; they shall never
see light.
20 Man that is in honour, and
understandeth not, is like the
beasts that perish.
