NASB
"then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it."
— Ecclesiastes 12:7, NASB
“Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”
“and the dust returneth to the earth as it was, and the spirit returneth unto God who gave it. ”
“and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.”
“and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the life’s breath returns to God who gave it.”
“And the dust return into its earth, from whence it was, and the spirit return to God, who gave it.”
“And the dust goes back to the earth as it was, and the spirit goes back to God who gave it.”
“Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”
and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will sing softly.
Furthermore, men are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags himself along, and the caperberry is ineffective. For man goes to his eternal home while mourners go about in the street.
Remember Him before the silver cord is broken and the golden bowl is crushed, the pitcher by the well is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed;
then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.
