Psalm 49:16
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Do not be amazed when a man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases.
In context
14 Like sheep they are destined for Sheol. Death will be their shepherd. The upright will rule them in the morning, and their form will decay in Sheol, far from their lofty abode.
15 But God will redeem my life from Sheol, for He will surely take me to Himself. Selah
16 Do not be amazed when a man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases.
17 For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down.
18 Though in his lifetime he blesses his soul— and men praise you when you prosper—
