10 Anyone can see that even the wise die,as well as the foolish and stupid.They all leave their riches to their descendants.
11 Their graves are their homes for ever;there they stay for all time,though they once had lands of their own.
12 No one's greatness can save him from death;he will still die like the animals.
13 See what happens to those who trust in themselves,the fate of those who are satisfied with their wealth —
14 they are doomed to die like sheep,and Death will be their shepherd.The righteous will triumph over them,as their bodies quickly decayin the world of the dead far from their homes.
15 But God will rescue me;he will save me from the power of death.
16 Don't be upset when someone becomes rich,when his wealth grows even greater;
