For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down.
In context
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—
19 he will join the generation of his fathers, who will never see the light of day.
