Psalm 48:18
Douay-Rheims
For when he shall die he shall take nothing away; nor shall his glory descend with him.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
Though . . . lived, &c.--literally, "For in his life he blessed his soul," or, "himself" (Luk 12:19, Luk 16:25); yet (Psa 49:19); he has had his portion. men will praise . . . thyself--Flatterers enhance the rich fool's self-complacency; the form of address to him strengthens the emphasis of the sentiment.
