All things that are of the earth, shall return to the earth again, and all waters shall return to the sea.
Everything that comes from the earth goes back to the earth, just as all water flows into the sea.
All that is of earth returns to earth, and what is from above returns above.
All that is of the earth returns to the earth, and all that is from the waters returns to the sea.
All that is of earth returns to earth, and what is from above returns above.
All that is of earth returns to earth, and what is from above returns above.
All that is of earth returns to earth, and what is from above returns above.
All that is of earth returns to earth, and what is from above returns above.
All things that are from the earth turn back to the earth, and what is from the waters returns to the sea.
All things that are from the earth turn back to the earth, and what is from the waters returns to the sea.
For why all (the) things that be of the earth, shall (re)turn into the earth; and all (the things that be of the) waters shall (re)turn into the sea.
