\q and the meditation of my heart will be of understanding.

\q
|

|
|
\v 4 I will incline my ear to a parable;
|
|
|
|
\q I will begin my parable with the harp.
|

|
\q when iniquity surrounds me at my heels?

\q and boast about the amount of their riches?

\v 7 It is certain that no one can redeem his brother
|
|
|
|
\q or give God a ransom for him,
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
\v 8 For the redemption of one's life is costly,

|
|
\q and no one can pay what we owe.

|

|
|
\q so that his body should not decay.
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
\v 10 For he will see decay. Wise men die;
|
|
|
|
\q the fool and the brute alike perish
|
|
|
|
\q and leave their wealth to others.

\v 11 Their inner thought is that their families will
|
|
|
|
continue forever,
|
|
|
|
\q and the places where they live, to all generations;
|
|
|
|
\q they call their lands after their own names.

\q
|
|
|

\v 12 But man, having wealth, does not remain alive;
|
|
|
|
\q he is like the beasts that perish.
|

\b
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
\v 13 This, their way, is their folly;
|
|
|
|
\q yet after them, men approve of their sayings.
