Psalms 49:10-14 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

This is a sad, but too true picture of unawakened, careless Christless sinners. How poor, and even like senseless animals for slaughter, is their life. How fearful their end!

Psalms 49:10-14

10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.

11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to alla generations; they call their lands after their own names.

12 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.

13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approveb their sayings. Selah.

14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beautyc shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.
