Psalm 49:15

Misplaced Trust In Wealth

¹⁴
Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead);
Death will be their shepherd;
And the upright shall rule over them in the morning,
And their form and beauty shall be for Sheol to consume,
So that they have no dwelling [on earth].
¹⁵ 
But God will redeem my life from the power of Sheol,
For He will receive me. Selah. ¹⁶
Be not afraid when [an ungodly] man becomes rich,
When the wealth and glory of his house are increased;
