Psalm 49:9

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

That still he should for ever live, and not corruption see.

See the chapter Copy

What man is he that liveth here, and death shall never see? Or from the power of the grave what man his soul shall free?

Because my soul in grave to dwell shall not be left by thee; Nor wilt thou give thine Holy One corruption to see.

Earth's fat ones eat, and worship shall: all who to dust descend Shall bow to him; none of them can his soul from death defend.
