psalms 49:14 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. - Free Bible Online

psalms 49:14 As sheep they are appointed for Sheol; Death shall be their shepherd; And the upright shall rule over them in the morning; And their form shall be for Sheol to consume, So that they have no habitation.


      14. Like sheep--(compare Ps 49:12) unwittingly, they
      are laid--or, "put," &c.
      death shall feed on--or, better, "shall rule"
      them--as a shepherd (compare "feed," Ps 28:9, Margin).
      have dominion over--or, "subdue"
      them in the morning--suddenly, or in their turn.
      their beauty--literally, "form" or shape.
      shall consume--literally, "is for the consumption," that is, of the grave.
      from their dwelling--literally, "from their home (they go) to it," that is, the grave.
