NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Psalms 49

For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

1

 aHearh8085 thish384, allh3605 peoplesh5971a; Giveh238 earh238, allh3605  binhabitantsh3427 of the worldh2465,

2

Bothh1571  alowh1121h120 and highh1121h376, Richh6223 and poorh34 togetherh3162.

3

My mouthh6310 will  aspeakh1696 wisdomh2451, And the meditationh1900 of my hearth3820 will be  bunderstandingh8394.

4

I will inclineh5186 my earh241 to  aa proverbh4912;  bI will  1expressh6605a my  criddleh2420 on the harph3658.

5

Whyh4100 should I  afearh3372a in daysh3117 of adversityh7451b, When the iniquityh5771 of my  1foesh6120 surroundsh5437 me,

6

Even those who  atrusth982 in their wealthh2428 And boasth1984b in the abundanceh7230 of their richesh6239?

7

Noh3808 manh376 can by anyh6299 meansh6299  aredeemh6299 his brotherh251 Orh3808 giveh5414 to Godh430 a  bransomh3724a for him--

8

For  athe redemptionh6306b of  1his soulh5315 is costlyh3365, And he should ceaseh2308 trying foreverh5769--

9

That he should  aliveh2421a on eternallyh5331, That he should not  1 bundergoh7845 decayh7845.

10

For he seesh7200 that even  awiseh2450 menh2450 dieh4191; The  bstupidh3684 and the senselessh1198 alikeh3162 perishh6 And  cleaveh5800a their wealthh2428 to othersh312.

11

Their  1 ainnerh7130 thoughth7130 is that their housesh1004  bare foreverh5769 And their dwellingh4908 placesh4908 to allh1755 generationsh1755; They have  ccalledh7121 their landsh127 after their own namesh8034.

12

But  amanh120 in his  1pomph3366 will not endureh3885a; He is likeh4911a the  2beastsh929 that  3perishh1820.

13

Thish2088 is the  awayh1870 of those who are foolishh3689, And of those afterh310 them who  bapproveh7521 their wordsh6310.  1Selahh5542.

14

As sheeph6629 they are appointedh8371  afor  1Sheolh7585; Deathh4194 shall be their shepherdh7462a; And the  buprighth3477 shall ruleh7287a over them in the morningh1242, And their formh6736 shall be for  1Sheolh7585  cto consumeh1086  2Soh4480 that they have noh4480 habitationh2073.

15

But Godh430 will  aredeemh6299 my soulh5315 from the  1powerh3027 of  2Sheolh7585, For  bHe will receiveh3947 me. Selahh5542.

16

Do not be afraidh3372a  awhenh3588 a manh376 becomesh6238 richh6238, Whenh3588 the  1gloryh3519b of his househ1004 is increasedh7235a;

17

For whenh3588 he diesh4194 he will  acarryh3947 nothingh3808h3605 away; His  1gloryh3519b will not descendh3381 afterh310 him.

18

Thoughh3588 while he livesh2425b he  acongratulatesh1288  1himselfh5315-- And though men praiseh3034 you whenh3588 you doh3190 wellh3190 for yourself--

19

 1He shall  agoh935 to the generationh1755 of his fathersh1; They will neverh3808h5704h5331 seeh7200  bthe lighth216.

20

 aManh120 in his  1pomph3366, yet withouth3808 understandingh995, Is  blikeh4911a the  2beastsh929 that  3perishh1820.
