Original 1611 King James Bible (KJV)

1 An earnest persuasion to build the faith of resurrection, not on worldly power, but on God. 16 Worldly prosperity is not to be admired.

49:1 ¶ [[To the chiefe Musician, 5329 z8764 a Psalme 4210 for the sonnes 1121 of Korah.]] 7141 Heare 8085 z8798 this, x2063 all x3605 [yee] people, 5971 giue eare 238 z8685 all x3605 yee inhabitants 3427 z8802 of the world: 2465

49:2 Both x1571 low, 120 y1121 and x1571 high, 376 y1121 rich 6223 and poore 34 together. 3162

49:3 My mouth 6310 shall speake 1696 z8762 of wisedome: 2454 and the meditation 1900 of my heart 3820 shalbe of vnderstanding. 8394

49:4 I will incline 5186 z8686 mine eare 241 to a parable; 4912 I will open 6605 z8799 my darke saying 2420 vpon the harpe. 3658

49:5 Wherefore x4100 should I feare 3372 z8799 in the daies 3117 of euill, 7451 [when] the iniquitie 5771 of my heeles y6120 x6119 shall compasse y5437 z8799 me about? x5437

49:6 They that trust 982 z8802 in x5921 their wealth, 2428 and boast y1984 z8691 themselues x1984 in the multitude 7230 of their riches: 6239

49:7 None x3808 [of them] can y376 by any meanes 6299 z8800 redeeme 6299 z8799 [his] brother, 251 nor x3808 giue 5414 z8799 to God 430 a ransome 3724 for him:

49:8 (For the redemption 6306 of their soule 5315 [is] precious, 3365 z8799 and it ceaseth 2308 z8804 for euer.) 5769

49:9 That he should still x5750 liue 2421 z8799 for euer, 5331 [and] not x3808 see 7200 z8799 corruption. 7845

49:10 For x3588 he seeth 7200 z8799 [that] wise men 2450 die, 4191 z8799 likewise 3162 the foole, 3684 and the brutish person 1198 perish, 6 z8799 and leaue 5800 z8804 their wealth 2428 to others. 312

49:11 Their inward y7130 thought x7130 [is, that] their houses 1004 [shall continue] for euer, 5769 [and] their dwelling y4908 places x4908 to all y1755 generations; 1755 they call y7121 z8804 x712 x5921 [their] lands 127 after their owne names. 8034

49:12 Neuerthelesse man 120 [being] in honour 3366 abideth 3885 z8799 not: x1077 he is like 4911 z8738 the beastes 929 [that] perish. 1820 z8738

49:13 This x2088 their way 1870 [is] their follie; 3689 yet their posteritie 310 approue 7521 z8799 their sayings. 6310 Selah. 5542

49:14 Like sheepe 6629 they are layd 8371 z8804 in the graue, 7585 death 4194 shall feede 7462 z8799 on them; and the vpright 3477 shall haue dominion 7287 z8799 ouer them in the morning, 1242 and their beauty 6697 z8675 y6736 shall consume 1086 z8763 in the graue, 7585 from their dwelling. 2073 x4480

49:15 But x389 God 430 will redeeme 6299 z8799 my soule 5315 from the power 3027 x4480 of the graue; 7585 for x3588 he shall receiue 3947 z8799 me. Selah. 5542

49:16 Be not x408 thou afraid 3372 z8799 when x3588 one 376 is made rich, 6238 z8686 when x3588 the glory 3519 of his house 1004 is increased. 7235 z8799

49:17 For when x3588 he dieth, 4194 he shall carry x3947 nothing x3808 x3605 away: y3947 z8799 his glory 3519 shall not x3808 descend 3381 z8799 after 310 him.

49:18 Though x3588 whiles he liued, 2416 he blessed 1288 z8762 his soule: 5315 and men will praise 3034 z8686 thee, when x3588 thou doest well 3190 z8686 to thy selfe.

49:19 Hee shall goe 935 z8799 to x5704 the generation 1755 of his fathers, 1 they shall neuer 3808 5331 x5704 see 7200 z8799 light. 216

49:20 Man 120 [that is] in honour 3366 and vnderstandeth 995 z8799 not, x3808 is like 4911 z8738 the beasts 929 [that] perish. 1820 z8738
