They trust in their wealth
    and boast of great riches.
⁷ Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death^[a]
    by paying a ransom to God.
⁸ Redemption does not come so easily,
    for no one can ever pay enough
⁹ to live forever
    and never see the grave. Psalm 49: 6-9

What is money in your eyes? What are its blessings? What are its dangers?
