fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Both low and high, together rich and needy. |
| 3 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData My mouth speaketh wise things, And the meditations of my heart `are' things of understanding. |
| 4 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData I incline to a simile mine ear, I open with a harp my riddle: |
| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Why do I fear in days of evil? The iniquity of my supplanters doth compass me. |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of their riches, Do shew themselves foolish. |
| 7 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData A brother doth no one at all ransom, He doth not give to God his atonement. |
| 8 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And precious `is' the redemption of their soul, And it hath ceased -- to the age. |
| 9 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And still he liveth for ever, He seeth not the pit. |
| 10 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData For he seeth wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left to others their wealth. |
| 11 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Their heart `is': Their houses `are' to the age, Their tabernacles to all generations. They proclaimed their names over the lands. |
| 12 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And man in honour doth not remain, He hath been like the beasts, they have been cut off. |
| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData This their way `is' folly for them, And their posterity with their sayings are pleased. Selah. |
| 14 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData As sheep for Sheol they have set themselves, Death doth afflict them, And the upright rule over them in the morning, And their form `is' for consumption. Sheol `is' a dwelling for him. |
| 15 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Only, God doth ransom my soul from the hand of Sheol, For He doth receive me. Selah. |

fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Fear not, when one maketh wealth, When the honour of his house is abundant, |
| 17 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData For at his death he receiveth nothing, His honour goeth not down after him. |
| 18 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData For his soul in his life he blesseth, (And they praise thee when thou dost well for thyself.) |
| 19 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData It cometh to the generation of his fathers, For ever they see not the light. |
| 20 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Man in honour, who understandest not, Hath been like the beasts, they have been cut off! |
