6They trust in their wealth and boast of great riches.
7Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death by paying a ransom to God.
8Redemption does not come so easily, for no one can ever pay enough
9to live forever and never see the grave.
10Those who are wise must finally die, just like the foolish and senseless, leaving all their wealth behind.
Psalms 49:6-10 (NLT)
