"Those who trust in their own strength and who glory in the multitude of their riches,"
— Psalms 48:7, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.”
“With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish. ”
“With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.”
“With an east wind you shatter the large ships.”
“They that trust in their own strength, and glory in the multitude of their riches,”
“By you the ships of Tarshish are broken as by an east wind.”
“Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.”
My mouth will speak wisdom, and the meditation of my heart will speak prudence.
I will incline my ear to a parable. I will open my case with the psaltery.
Why should I fear in the evil day? The iniquity at my heel will surround me.
Those who trust in their own strength and who glory in the multitude of their riches,
no brother redeems, nor will man buy back. He will not give to God his appeasement,
nor the price for the redemption of his soul. And he will labor continuously,
and he will still live, until the end.
