Psalm 49:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 Indeed, he will see that the wise die,
and the fool will perish together with the senseless,(A)
and they leave their wealth to others.(B)
12 Their tombs are their homes forever,
their dwellings through all generations,
“They named countries after themselves”
13 —but man does not abide in splendor.
He is like the beasts—they perish.(C)
