Psalms 48 — Context

And man, when he was held in honor, did not understand. He has been compared to the senseless beasts, and he has become like them.

This way of theirs is a scandal to them. And afterwards, they will delight in their mouth.

They have been placed in Hell like sheep. Death will feed on them. And the just will have dominion over them in the morning. And their help will grow old in Hell for their glory.

Even so, truly God will redeem my soul from the hand of Hell, when he will receive me.

Do not be afraid, when a man will have been made rich, and when the glory of his house will have been multiplied.

For when he dies, he will take nothing away, and his glory will not descend with him.

For his soul will be blessed in his lifetime, and he will admit to you when you do good to him.
