◄ Psalm 49:17 ►

For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down.

Context

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.
