Psalm 49:17
“For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down.”
In context
15But God will redeem my life from Sheol, for He will surely take me to Himself. Selah
16Do not be afraid when a man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases.
17For when he dies, he will carry nothing away; his abundance will not follow him down.
18Though in his lifetime he blesses his soul— and men praise you when you prosper—
19He will join the generation of his fathers, who will never see the light of day.
