Psalms 49:18

18 Though while he lives he 1congratulates himself - And though men praise you when you do well for yourself-

Psalms 49:18 In-Context

16 Do not be afraid when a man becomes rich, When the glory of his house is increased;
17 For when he dies he will carry nothing away; His glory will not descend after him.
18 Though while he lives he congratulates himself - And though men praise you when you do well for yourself-
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; They will never see the light.
20 Man in his pomp, yet without understanding, Is like the beasts that perish.
