THIS IS WHAT I THINK ABOUT GRAMMY AWARD! Psalm 49 1599 Geneva Bible (GNV) To him that excelleth. A Psalm committed to the sons of Korah. 1 Hear [a]this all ye people: give ear, all ye that dwell in the world, 2 As well low as high, both rich and poor. 3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom, and the meditation of mine heart is of knowledge. 4 I will incline mine ear to a parable, and utter my grave matter upon the harp. 5 Wherefore should I [b]fear in the evil days, when iniquity shall compass me about, as at mine heels? 6 They trust in their [c]goods, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches. 7 Yet a man can by no means redeem his brother: he cannot give his ransom to God, 8 (So [d]precious is the redemption of their souls, [e]and the continuance forever) 9 That he may live still forever, and not see the grave. 10 For he seeth that wise men [f]die: and also that the ignorant and foolish perish, and leave their riches for [g]others. 11 Yet they think their houses and their habitations shall continue forever, even from generation to generation, and [h]call their lands by their names. 12 But man shall not continue in honor; he is like the [i]beasts that die. 13 This their way uttereth their foolishness; yet their posterity [j]delight in their talk. Selah. 14 [k]Like sheep they lie in grave; [l]death devoureth them; and the righteous shall have domination over them in the [m]morning; for their beauty shall consume, when they shall go from their house to grave. 15 But God shall deliver my soul from the power of the grave; [n]for he will receive me. Selah. 16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, and when the glory of his house is increased. 17 For he shall take nothing away, when he dieth, neither shall his pomp descend after him. 18 For while he lived, [o]he rejoiced himself; and [p]men will praise thee, when thou makest much of thyself. 19 [q][r]He shall enter into the generation of his fathers, [s]and they shall not live forever. 20 Man is in honor; and [t]understandeth not; he is like to beasts that perish.
