⁶ Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?

²⁰ All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

²⁷ And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

²³ For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.

⁶ For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.

²² They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

²⁰ There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.

⁷ Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.

³ If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.

¹² What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
