If He sets His heart on him, if He gathers his spirit and his breath to Himself,
in whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all flesh, even of man?
What is man that You should magnify him, and that You should set Your heart to him,
He is wise in heart and mighty in strength; who has been hard against Him and been at peace?
You hide Your face, and they are troubled; You gather their breath, and they expire and return to their dust.
You turn man back to dust, and say, Return, O sons of men.
then the dust shall return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return to God who gave it.
And they will be gathered, a gathering of prisoners in a dungeon. And they shall be shut up in a prison; and after many days they will be called to account.
