Psalm 49:8-10
Evangelical Heritage Version
Psalm 49:8-10
Evangelical Heritage Version
8 (Yes, the ransom for their souls is costly.
Any payment would fall short.)[a]
9 —so that he could live on forever and not see the pit.
10 Yes, we can see that wise men die.
The fool and the senseless alike perish,
and they leave their wealth to others.
Footnotes
- Psalm 49:8 The line is cryptic: it/he ceases forever. This may mean that no payment is ever enough or that at death the man’s earthly life ends forever.
