Psalm 49

Mortals cannot abide in their pomp;
they are like the animals that perish.


וְאָדָם בִּיקָר, בַּל-יָלִין; נִמְשַׁל כַּבְּהֵמוֹת נִדְמוּ.

What humans esteem passes quickly, as beasts that perish.

Regardless of what I have - or lose - it is ephemeral.

Do not worry. Do not take pride. Abide in love and honor one another.

Psalm 49
