Psalm 49:11-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹¹Their graves^[a] are their homes forever,
    their dwelling places to all generations,
    though they named lands their own.
¹²Mortals cannot abide in their pomp;
    they are like the animals that perish.

¹³Such is the fate of the foolhardy,
the end of those^[b] who are pleased with their lot.Selah
