In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind.
What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him, And that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him,
He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: Who hath hardened himself against him, and prospered?
Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; Thou takest away their breath they die, And return to their dust.
Thou turnest man to destruction; And sayest, Return, ye children of men.
and the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit return unto God who gave it.
And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
