¹⁰ But ·we [^Lmortals] die, and ·our bodies are laid in the ground [^Ldwindle away];
    ·we take our last breath [^Lhumans expire] and are ·gone [^Lno more; ^Cunlike trees, humans do not come back to life].
¹¹ Water disappears from a ·lake [sea],
    and a river ·loses its water and dries up [^Ldries up and withers away].
¹² In the same way, ·we [^Lhumans] lie down and do not rise again;
    ·we [^Lthey] will not get up or be awakened
    until the heavens disappear [^Cthat is, never].
