Ecclesiastes 12:7-9

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁷ Then shall the dust [out of which God made man’s body] return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return to God Who gave it.

⁸ Vapor of vapors and futility of futilities, says the Preacher. All is futility (emptiness, falsity, vainglory, and transitoriness)!

⁹ And furthermore, because the Preacher was wise, he [Solomon] still taught the people knowledge; and he pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs.
