RF PSA 49:1 To the Conductor of the Choristers.
A Psalm
STANZA 1.
Hear this all you Peoples,—
Attend, all who dwell in the World;—
RF PSA 49:2 Sons of Adam, with children of men,
Along with the rich and the poor.
RF PSA 49:3 For my mouth speaks in knowledge,
And sense is the thought of my heart.
RF PSA 49:4 I will bend down my ears to the verse,
And unfold my ideas to the harp!
RF PSA 49:5 STANZA 2.
Why fear I the bad in my right?
And the wicked surrounding my feet?
RF PSA 49:6 Those who trust on their power,
And confide on their wealth?
RF PSA 49:7 Which never can set a man free,
Nor give GOD a ransom for him.
RF PSA 49:8 How costly redeeming their lives,
When they fall down for ever!
RF PSA 49:9 For can he always live,
And look not on decay?
RF PSA 49:10 STANZA 3.
Yet he sees that philosophers die;—
All, like fools and the brutes are destroyed,
And to others abandon their power.
RF PSA 49:11 Their houses they thought built for ever,
And their dwellings for ages of time,
And they fix their own names on their Lands.
RF PSA 49:12 Yet man cannot last in renown,
He perishes like the dumb brutes.
RF PSA 49:13 How foolish this way of theirs is!
But their children delight in their plans.
RF PSA 49:14 STANZA 4.
They lie in the grave like a flock;
Death shepherds them when they descend,
He lays them straight out to the view,
With their troubles and griefs in his care.
RF PSA 49:15 But GOD will deliver my life
From the hand of the Grave, who may seize.
RF PSA 49:16 STANZA 5.
Envy not when a man grows in wealth;
When in honour his family gains,
RF PSA 49:17 For nothing he takes in his death,
Nor can carry his honours with him
RF PSA 49:18 Though his mind may be happy in life,—
Yet that you are well be content,
RF PSA 49:19 He goes to his ancestor's race,
And never more looks on the light.
RF PSA 49:20 Men in honour, and yet without sense,
Are like to the perishing beasts.
