Psalm 49:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ I have studied proverbs.
I explain what they mean
    as I make music on my harp.
⁵ When trouble comes,
    why am I afraid?
When cruel people are all round me,
    and they want to hurt me,
    why am I afraid?
⁶ Those people think that their money will keep them safe.
They are proud about their riches.
