| Psalms 49:3 | My mouth shall speak wisdom; And the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 49:4 | I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp. | |||||||||||||||

| Psalms 49:17 | For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away; His glory shall not descend after him. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 49:18 | Though while he lived he blessed his soul (And men praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself,) | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 49:19 | He shall go to the generation of his fathers; They shall never see the light. | |||||||||||||||
