00:13.340 --> 00:17.560
Hear this, all people, give ear.

00:18.360 --> 00:22.200
All who dwell on the earth.

00:23.600 --> 00:26.720
Both the high and the low.

00:28.220 --> 00:31.740
Both the rich and the poor.

00:32.700 --> 00:36.360
My mouth shall sound forth with wisdom.

00:37.360 --> 00:41.040
The thoughts of my heart with
understanding.

00:42.380 --> 00:45.920
I'll incline my ear to a proverb.

00:46.900 --> 00:51.340
And solve my riddle to the music of a
harp.

00:59.160 --> 01:02.780
Why should I fear in times of trouble?

01:03.320 --> 01:08.160
With all the sins of my foes all around
me?

01:09.160 --> 01:12.600
Men who trust in their wealth.

01:13.460 --> 01:17.200
Who boast in the surplus of their riches.

01:18.380 --> 01:22.140
No man can ransom himself.

01:22.800 --> 01:26.960
Or give God the price of his life.

01:27.680 --> 01:31.420
For the ransom of his life is too costly.

01:31.420 --> 01:37.520
That he should always live and never see
the pit.

01:44.650 --> 01:48.470
For since even wise men will die.

01:49.290 --> 01:53.650
So the fool and the ignorant perish.

01:54.470 --> 01:58.510
Leaving their wealth all to others.

01:59.110 --> 02:02.710
Though they thought that their homes were
forever.

02:03.710 --> 02:07.410
Their dwelling for all generations.

02:08.750 --> 02:12.810
They call earthly lands by their names.

02:13.830 --> 02:17.150
But no man abides in his boasting.

02:18.190 --> 02:22.470
Like the peace of the earth he shall die.

02:23.150 --> 02:27.310
But God will ransom my soul.

02:27.310 --> 02:31.830
From the power of Sheol.

02:35.070 --> 02:39.010
This is the fate of the foolish.

02:40.150 --> 02:44.170
And of all who approve of their worths.

02:44.450 --> 02:48.590
Like sheep that are led to Sheol.

02:49.190 --> 02:53.350
With death leading them as their shepherd.

02:54.020 --> 02:58.150
The upright shall reign in the morning.

02:59.150 --> 03:02.870
While their form is consumed by Sheol.

03:03.350 --> 03:07.550
So they shall be left with no dwelling.

03:09.010 --> 03:12.670
But God will ransom my soul.

03:13.370 --> 03:17.470
Yes, God will ransom my soul.

03:17.470 --> 03:22.570
From the power of Sheol.

03:25.810 --> 03:29.230
Fret not for those who get rich.

03:30.090 --> 03:33.950
For the wealth of his house is increasing.

03:35.230 --> 03:39.310
For he'll carry nothing when he dies.

03:39.690 --> 03:44.070
And his wealth will not go down with him.

03:44.990 --> 03:48.650
For while he lived he blessed himself.

03:49.430 --> 03:53.390
And was praised for all his success.

03:54.050 --> 03:58.130
He shall go to the place of his fathers.

03:58.950 --> 04:03.530
Who will never again see the light.

04:04.010 --> 04:07.890
But God will ransom my soul.

04:08.510 --> 04:12.650
From the power of Sheol.

04:12.650 --> 04:17.470
Yes, God will ransom my soul.

04:18.130 --> 04:21.970
And receive me.
