Psalms 49:6

A church father on this verse
“Even if he seems to be one of the very powerful people in this life, even if he is surrounded with a great number of possessions, these words teach him to descend from such a notion and to humble himself under the mighty hand of God. … Not even the soul is complete in itself for salvation.… Every human soul has bowed…”
Basil of Caesarea, 4th c. — HOMILIES ON THE PSALMS 19:3 (PS 49)
