For I know that death will destroy me: for the earth is the house [appointed] for every mortal.

both the sons of mean men, and sons of [great] men; the rich and poor [man] together.

They that trust in their strength, and boast themselves in the multitude of their wealth-

or the price for the redemption of his soul, though he labor forever,

When he shall see wise men dying, the fool and the senseless one shall perish together; and they shall leave their wealth to strangers.

There is no man that has power over the spirit to retain the spirit; and there is no power in the day of death; and there is no discharge in the day of the battle; neither shall wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

and they shall look up, and fears [shall be] in the way, and the almond tree shall blossom, and the locust shall increase, and the caper shall be scattered, because man has gone to his eternal home, and the mourners have gone about the market.

[before] the dust also return to the earth as it was, and the spirit return to God who gave it.

And it came to pass that the beggar died, and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.

And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham from afar, and Lazarus in his bosom.

And just as it is appointed for men once to die, and after this judgment,

They have laid [them] as sheep in Hades; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning, and their help shall fail in Hades from their glory.

Fear not when a man is enriched, and when the glory of his house is increased.

For his soul shall be blessed in his life; he shall give thanks to you when you do well to him.

Man that is in honor, understands not; he is compared to the senseless cattle, and is likened unto them.
