Psalms 49:16-20
16
Do not be overawed when a man grows rich,
when the splendor of his house increases;
17
for he will take nothing with him when he dies,
his splendor will not descend with him.
18
Though while he lived he counted himself blessed—
and men praise you when you prosper—
19
he will join the generation of his fathers,
who will never see the light of life.
20
A man who has riches without understanding
is like the beasts that perish.
