New English Translation

¹⁶ Do not be afraid when a man becomes rich^[a]
and his wealth multiplies.^[b]
17 For he will take nothing with him when he dies;
his wealth will not follow him down into the grave.^[c]
18 He pronounces this blessing on himself while he is alive:
“May men praise you, for you have done well.”
