Ecclesiastes 3:18-20

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁸ I thought to myself, “God is going to test humans in order to show them that they are ⌞like⌟ animals.” ¹⁹ Humans and animals have the same destiny. One dies just like the other. All of them have the same breath ⌞of life⌟. Humans have no advantage over animals. All ⌞of life⌟ is pointless. ²⁰ All ⌞life⌟ goes to the same place. All ⌞life⌟ comes from the ground, and all of it goes back to the ground.
