12And man when he was in honour did not understand; he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them.


In Context

9 and shall still live unto the end.

10 He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: the senseless and the fool shall perish together: And they shall leave their riches to strangers:

11 and their sepulchres shall be their houses for ever. Their dwelling places to all generations: they have called their lands by their names.

12 And man when he was in honour did not understand; he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them.

13 This way of theirs is a stumblingblock to them: and afterwards they shall delight in their mouth.

14 They are laid in hell like sheep: death shall feed upon them. And the just shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their help shall decay in hell from their glory.
