Psalms 49

KING JAMES BIBLE	Peshitta
1 Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world:
2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.	2 ܫܡܥܘ ܗܕܐ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܥܡ̈ܡܐ ܘܨܘܬܘ ܟܠ ܝܬ̈ܒܝ ܐܪܥܐ
3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.	3 ܒܢܝ̈ ܐܪܥܐ ܘܒܢܝܢ̈ܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܚܕܐ ܥܬܝܪ̈ܐ ܘܡܣ̈ܟܢܐ
4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp.	4 ܦܘܡܝ ܢܡܠܠ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܘܪܢܝܗ ܕܠܒܝ ܣܘܟܠܐ
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?	5 ܐܨܠܐ ܐ̈ܕܢܝ ܠܡ̈ܬܠܐ ܘܐܡܠܠ ܒܟܢܪ̈ܐ ܐܘܚ̈ܕܬܝ
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;	6 ܠܐ ܕܚܠ ܐܢܐ ܒܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܒܝܫ̈ܐ ܥܘܠܐ ܕܒ̈ܥܠܕܒܒܝ ܟܪܟܢܝ
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:	7 ܟܠ ܕܬܟܝܠܝܢ ܥܠ ܚܝܠܗܘܢ ܘܡܫܬܒܗܪܝܢ ܒܣܘܓܐܐ ܕܥܘܬܪܗܘܢ
8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)	8 ܐܚܐ ܠܐ ܦܪܩ ܘܓܒܪܐ ܠܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܦܘܪܩܢܗ
9 That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.	9 ܝܩܝܪ ܗܘ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܕܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܠܐܝ ܠܥܠܡ
10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.	10 ܕܬܚܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܙܐ ܚܒܠܐ
11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.	11 ܟܕ ܬܚܙܐ ܚܟ̈ܝܡܐ ܕܡܝܬܝܢ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܣܟ̈ܠܐ ܘܚܣܝܪ̈ܝ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܕܐܒܕܝܢ ܘܫܒܩܝܢ ܩܢܝܢܗܘܢ ܠܐܚܪ̈ܢܐ
12 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish.	12 ܩܒܪ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܒ̈ܬܝܗܘܢ ܠܥܠܡ ܘܡܥܡܪܗܘܢ ܠܕܪܕܪܝܢ ܘܩܪܝܢ ܫܡ̈ܗܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ
13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.	13 ܒܪܢܫܐ ܒܐܝܩܪܗ ܠܐ ܐܬܒܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܠܒܥܝܪܐ ܘܐܬܕܡܝ ܠܗ̇
14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.	14 ܗܢܘ ܫܒܝܠܗܘܢ ܬܘܩܠܬܐ ܠܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܘܐܚܪܝܬ ܒܦܘܡܗܘܢ ܢܪܥܘܢ
15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.	15 ܐܝܟ ܥܢܐ ܠܫܝܘܠ ܢܫܬܠܡܘܢ ܘܡܘܬܐ ܢܪܥܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܢܫܬܠܛܘܢ ܒܗܘܢ ܬܪ̈ܝܨܐ ܒܨܦܪܐ ܘܨܘܪܬܗܘܢ ܬܒܠܐ ܫܝܘܠ ܘܡܢ ܬܫ̈ܒܚܬܗܘܢ ܢܬܕܚܩܘܢ
16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;	16 ܐܠܗܐ ܢܦܪܩܝܗ̇ ܠܢܦܫܝ. ܘܡܢ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܫܝܘܠ ܢܣܩܢܝ
17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.	17 ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠ ܡܐ ܕܥܬܪ ܓܒܪܐ ܘܣܓܐ ܐܝܩܪܐ ܕܒܝܬܗ
18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.	18 ܡܛܘܠ ܕܠܐ ܢܣܒ ܡܕܡ ܒܡܘܬܗ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܢܚܬ ܒܬܪܗ ܫܘܒܚܗ
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.	19 ܡܛܠ ܕܢܦܫܗ ܗܘ ܡܒܪܟ ܒܚܝ̈ܘܗܝ ܢܘܕܐ ܠܟ ܟܕ ܬܛܐܒ ܠܗ
20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.	20 ܘܬܡܛܝܘܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܕܪܐ ܕܐ̈ܒܗܘܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܠܐ ܢܚܙܐ ܢܘܗܪܐ
