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

²⁹ Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.

⁷ And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

¹⁹ In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

¹⁰ The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

³ All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

¹¹ My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.

²¹ His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
