This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.

Verse 13 is found in chapter 49 of Psalms. Psalm 49 adopts a wisdom tone and addresses the inability of wealth to rescue human beings from death. Rich and poor ultimately share the same mortal condition, so accumulating possessions is not a definitive guarantee. The psalmist contrasts the destiny of those who trust in their possessions with the hope that God can redeem life. Wisdom consists in recognizing the limitations of wealth before death.

Dennoch kann ein Mensch nicht bleiben in solchem Ansehen, sondern muß davon wie ein Vieh.
Este su camino es su locura: Con todo, corren sus descendientes por el dicho de ellos. (Selah.)
Este es el camino de los que confían neciamente en sí mismos y de quienes después aprueban sus palabras. Selah.
Telle est leur voie, leur folie, Et ceux qui les suivent se plaisent à leurs discours. -Pause.
Questa lor via è loro una pazzia; E pure i lor discendenti si compiacciono a seguire i lor precetti. Sela.
Este caminho deles é a sua loucura; contudo a sua posteridade aprova as suas palavras. (Selá.)
他們所行之道本為自己的愚昧, 後來的人卻還佩服他們的話語。(細拉)
