14As sheep they are appointed for Sheol;
         Death shall be their shepherd;
         And the upright shall rule over them in the morning,
         And their form shall be for Sheol to consume
         So that they have no habitation.

15But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol,
         For He will receive me.

16Do not be afraid when a man becomes rich,
         When the glory of his house is increased;

17For when he dies he will carry nothing away;
         His glory will not descend after him.

18Though while he lives he congratulates himself—
         And though men praise you when you do well for yourself—

19He shall go to the generation of his fathers;
         They will never see the light.

20Man in his pomp, yet without understanding,
         Is like the beasts that perish.
