Psalms 49:6


Psalms 49:5 Psalms 49:6 (KJV) Psalms 49:7
Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, [when] the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
None [of them] can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
