19For the fate of the sons of man is the same as the fate of the beast: as one dies, so dies the other, and all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the beast, for all is vapor.

20All go to one place. All came from the dust, and all return to the dust.

21Who knows whether the spirit of human beings goes upward and whether the spirit of the animal goes down to the earth?
