Psalm 49:10

Misplaced Trust In Wealth

⁹ That he should, yet, live on, continually, Should not see corruption. ¹⁰ For it is seen that, the wise, die, Together with the dullard, and the brutish, do they perish, And leave, to others, their wealth: ¹¹ Their, inward thought, is that their houses are for times age-biding, Their habitations, for generation after generation, - They give their own names unto lands!
