Ecclesiastes 12:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ And dust returns to the earth as it was. And the spirit returns to God Who gave it.

⁸ “Vanity of vanities,” says the preacher, “All is vanity.”

⁹ And the wiser the preacher was, the more he taught the people knowledge, and caused them to hear, and searched forth, and prepared many parables.
