"IfHe should determineto do so, If He should gatherto Himself His spiritand His breath,
In whosehandis the lifeof everylivingthing,And the breathof allmankind?
"Whatis manthat You magnifyhim, And that You are concernedabouthim,
"Wisein heartand mightyin strength,Whohas defiedHim withoutharm?
You hideYour face,they are dismayed;You takeawaytheir spirit,they expireAnd returnto their dust.
You turnmanbackinto dustAnd say,"Return,O childrenof men."
then the dustwill returnto the earthas it was, and the spiritwill returnto Godwhogaveit.
They will be gatheredtogether[Like] prisonersin the dungeon,And will be confinedin prison;And aftermanydaysthey [will] [be] punished.
