|
| 8 | ἀδελφὸς οὐ λυτροῦται λυτρώσεται ἄνθρωπος οὐ δώσει τῷ θεῷ ἐξίλασμα αὐτοῦ | Ps 49:7 | - none of them can by any means redeem his brother,
- nor give God a ransom for him.

- no payment is ever enough,

- and their dwelling places to all generations.

| 14 | αὕτη ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν σκάνδαλον αὐτοῖς καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐδοκήσουσιν διάψαλμα | Ps 49:13 | - This is the destiny of those who are foolish,
- and of those who approve their sayings.

|
| 15 | ὡς πρόβατα ἐν ᾅδῃ ἔθεντο θάνατος ποιμαίνει αὐτούς καὶ κατακυριεύσουσιν αὐτῶν οἱ εὐθεῖς τὸ πρωί καὶ ἡ βοήθεια αὐτῶν παλαιωθήσεται ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἐκ τῆς δόξης αὐτῶν | Ps 49:14 | - They are appointed as a flock for Sheol.
- Death shall be their shepherd.
- The upright shall have dominion over them in the morning.

- far from their mansion.

| 16 | πλὴν ὁ θεὸς λυτρώσεται τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ χειρὸς ᾅδου ὅταν λαμβάνῃ με διάψαλμα | Ps 49:15 | - But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol,
- for he will receive me.

- when the glory of his house is increased.
|
| 18 | ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ ἀποθνῄσκειν αὐτὸν λήμψεται τὰ πάντα οὐδὲ συγκαταβήσεται αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα αὐτοῦ | Ps 49:17 | - For when he dies he shall carry nothing away.
- His glory shall not descend after him.
|
| 19 | ὅτι ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ εὐλογηθήσεται ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι ὅταν ἀγαθύνῃς αὐτῷ | Ps 49:18 | - Though while he lived he blessed his soul—
- and men praise you when you do well for yourself—
|
| 20 | εἰσελεύσεται ἕως γενεᾶς πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος οὐκ ὄψεται φῶς | Ps 49:19 | - he shall go to the generation of his fathers.
