13 This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,

and of their followers, who approve their sayings.

13 This their way is their folly:

Yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.

13 This is the fate of fools,

though they are remembered as being wise.

Interlude

13 This is the way of those who are foolish,

And of their posterity who approve their sayings.

Selah

13 This is what will happen to those who trust in themselves

and to their followers who believe them.

Selah

13 This their way is their folly:

Yet after them men approve their sayings. Selah

13 This their way is their folly, yet they that come after them delight in their sayings. Selah.

13 This is the final outcome for fools and their followers 

who are delighted by what they say: 

Selah 

13 This is the way of those who are arrogant,

and of their followers,

who approve of their words. Selah

13 Such is the fate of the foolhardy,

the end of those who are pleased with their lot. Selah

13 This is the journey of those who have foolish confidence,

and those after them who accept their sayings. Selah

13 That’s what happens to those who trust in themselves.

It also happens to their followers, who agree with what they say. Selah

13 This is the way of those who are foolish,

And of those after them who approve their words.

Selah.
