PSAL. XLIX. 1 The holy Ghost calleth all men to the consideration of mans life, 7 Shewing them not to be most ble&esset;ed, that are most wealthie, and therefore not to be feared: but contrariwise he lifteth vp our mindes to consider howe all things are ruled by Gods prouidence: 14 Who as hee iudgeth these worldly misers to euerlasting torments, 15 So doeth hee preserue his and will rewarde them in the day of the resurrection, 2.The&esset;a. 1.6. The vaine trust of the wicked. ¶2; To him that excelleth. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah.


1   Heare note this, all ye people: giue eare, all ye that dwell in the world,


2   As well lowe as hie, both rich and poore.


3   My mouth shal speake of wisdome, and the meditation of mine heart is of knowledge.


4   I will incline mine eare to a parable, and vtter my graue matter vpon the harpe.


5   Wherefore should I note feare in the euil dayes, when iniquitie shal compasse me about, as at mine heeles?


6   They trust in their note goods, and boast them selues in the multitude of their riches.


7   Yet a man can by no meanes redeeme his brother: he can not giue his raunsome to God,


8   (So note precious is the redemption of their soules, note and the continuance for euer)


9   That he may liue still for euer, and not see the graue.


10   For he seeth that wise men note die, and also that the ignorant and foolish perish, & leaue their riches for note others.


11   Yet they thinke, their houses, and their habitations shall continue for euer, euen from generation to generation, and note call their lands by their names.


12   But man shall not continue in honour: he is like the note beastes that die.


13   This their way vttereth their foolishnes: yet their posteritie note delite in their talke. Selah.


14    noteLike sheepe they lie in graue: note death deuoureth them, and the righteous shall haue domination ouer them in the note morning: for their beautie shall consume, when they shall goe from their house to graue.


15   But God shall deliuer my soule from the power of the graue: note for he will receiue me. Selah.


16   Be not thou afrayd when one is made rich, and when the glory of his house is increased.


17    noteFor he shall take nothing away when he dieth, neither shal his pompe descende after him.


18   For while he liued, note he reioyced himselfe: and note men will prayse thee, when thou makest much of thy selfe.


19    note noteHe shal enter into the generation of his fathers, note and they shall not liue for euer.


20   Man is in honour, and note vnderstandeth not: he is like to beasts that perish.
