Psalms 49:6-13

Bishops(i) 6 There be some that put their trust in their goodes: and boast them selues in the multitude of their riches 7 But no man at all can redeeme his brother: nor geue a raunsome vnto God for hym 8 (49:8a) For the redemption of their soule is very costly, and must be let alone for euer 9 (49:8b) yea though he lyue long and see not the graue 10 (49:9) For he seeth that wyse men dye: and that the foole and ignoraunt perishe together, and leaue their riches for other 11 (49:10) And yet they thynke that their houses shall continue for euer, and that their dwellyng places shall endure from one generation to another: [therfore] they call landes after their owne names 12 (49:11) Neuerthelesse, man can not abyde in [such] honour: he is but lyke vnto bruite beastes that perishe 13 (49:12) This their way is their foolishnesse: yet their posteritie prayse their saying. Selah
