Psalms tells us “For he sees that even the wise die;/ the fool and the stupid alike must perish/ and leave their wealth to others. . . Be not afraid when a man becomes rich, when the glory of his house increases. For when he dies he will carry nothing away; his glory will not go down after him. For though, while he lives, he counts himself blessed—and though you get praise when you do well for yourself—his soul will go to the generation of his fathers, who will never again see light. Man in his pomp yet without understanding is like the beasts that perish. (49.10, 16-20).
他必見智慧人死，又見愚頑人和畜類人一同滅亡，將他們的財貨留給別人. . . 見人發財、家室增榮的時候，你不要懼怕；因為，他死的時候什麼也不能帶去；他的榮耀不能隨他下去。他活著的時候，雖然自誇為有福；他仍必歸到他歷代的祖宗那裡，永不見光。人在尊貴中而不醒悟，就如死亡的畜類一樣。(詩篇49：10）
The outcome is the same for both wise and ignorant people, as well as for the rich and the poor. Their ultimate fate is death, and death renders everything meaningless. The pursuit of wisdom cannot be our ultimate goal and purpose in life, and the pursuit of wealth cannot be the meaning of our existence, because with the arrival of death, all of these cease to exist alongside us.
