²⁹ If your face is veiled, they are troubled; when you take away their breath, they come to an end, and go back to the dust.

¹⁴ If he made his spirit come back to him, taking his breath into himself again,

¹⁵ All flesh would come to an end together, and man would go back to the dust.

⁷ And the dust goes back to the earth as it was, and the spirit goes back to God who gave it.

⁷ Lord, by your grace you have kept my mountain strong: when your face was turned from me I was troubled.

¹⁹ With the hard work of your hands you will get your bread till you go back to the earth from which you were taken: for dust you are and to the dust you will go back.

⁴ Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.

³ You send man back to his dust; and say, Go back, you children of men.

¹⁷ In that day my wrath will be moved against them, and I will be turned away from them, veiling my face from them, and destruction will overtake them, and unnumbered evils and troubles will come on them; so that in that day they will say, Have not these evils come on us because our God is not with us?

²⁰ For every living thing was put under the power of change, not by its desire, but by him who made it so, in hope

²¹ That all living things will be made free from the power of death and will have a part with the free children of God in glory.

²² For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.

²⁵ And he is not dependent on the work of men's hands, as if he had need of anything, for he himself gives to all life and breath and all things;

²⁹ ...

²⁴ Why is your face veiled from me, as if I was numbered among your haters?

⁹ O keep in mind that you made me out of earth; and will you send me back again to dust?
