Psalms 49:12KJV

Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 12 of 20

"Nevertheless man in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts perish."
Psalms 49:12

In context

10For he seeth wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.

11Their inward thought their houses for ever, their dwelling places to all generations; they call lands after their own names.

12Nevertheless man in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts perish.

13This their way their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.

14Like 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.
