Psalms 49

Revlation : Psalms

The book of Psalms contains some of the greatest words ever written, sung, and prayed. The psalms are often lyrics of songs for worship. When you read the Psalms, try to imagine the movement of the people at worship in the Temple. Also, remember that the Psalms are poetry. Therefore, they are more to be proclaimed than explained.
Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world
PSALMS 49:1
Both low and high, rich and poor, together.

They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;

This their way is their folly yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.

Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.

Though while he lived he blessed his soul and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.

Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.
