“Though in his lifetime he blesses his soul — and men praise you when you prosper —”
Psalm 49:18 (BSB)
Context Reading
16Do not be afraid when a man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases. 17For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down. 18Though in his lifetime he blesses his soul — and men praise you when you prosper — 19he will join the generation of his fathers, who will never see the light of day. 20A man who has riches without understanding is like the beasts that perish.
