Psalms 49
Intro: Resurrection of the dead. (To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.)

1 Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world;

2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.

3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

4 I will incline mine ear to a parable; I will open my dark saying upon the harp.

5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?

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

7 None can by any means redeem his brother;

8 Nor give to God a ransom for him that he should still live forever, that it ceaseth not forever to see corruption.
