Psalms 49:8
King James VersionSource notes
“(For the redemption of their soul precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)”
Context
5Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
6They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7None can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8(For the redemption of their soul precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
9That he should still live for ever, not see corruption.
10For he seeth wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11Their inward thought their houses for ever, their dwelling places to all generations; they call lands after their own names.
