Ecclesiastes 3:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ I also thought, ‘God wants people to know that they are like animals. That is why he tests us. ¹⁹ The same thing happens to humans as happens to animals. We all breathe for a time and then we die. Humans are no different to animals. Life has no purpose. ²⁰ All living things finally go to the same place. We all come from the dust of the ground. And we all go back to the dust when we die.^[a]
