All of us must die eventually. Our lives are like water spilled out on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God does not just sweep life away; instead, he devises ways to bring us back when we have been separated from him.

我们都是必死的，如同水泼在地上，不能收回。神并不夺取人的性命，乃设法使逃亡的人不致成为赶出、回不来的。

我们都必死，如同水泼在地上，不能收回。上帝不会让人不死，但仍设法使逃亡的人不致成为赶出、回不来的人。

確實我們都會死去，如同潑在地上的水不能收回，但神不是要取人性命，而是要想出方法不讓流亡者一直被驅逐而遠離他。

吾儕必死、如水傾地、不能復收、上帝不奪人命、乃設法俾亡者得免驅逐、

我眾終必有死、如水傾地、不能復聚、故上帝不使償命、別設一法、俾亡者得免驅逐。

我儕終必死亡、如水傾地、不能復聚、惟天主不偏待人、或作天主不使人喪命必設一法、使逃亡者終得旋歸、

Like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be recovered, so we must die. But that is not what God desires; rather, he devises ways so that a banished person does not remain banished from him.

All of us must die. We are like water spilled on the ground. It can’t be put back into the jar. But that is not what God desires. Instead, he finds a way to bring back anyone who was driven away from him.

And I know you are sending me to my death— the destination of all who live.

And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment,

The slayer should have stayed inside the city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest, the slayer may return to his own property.

The community must protect the slayer from the avenger and must escort the slayer back to live in the city of refuge to which he fled. There he must remain until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the sacred oil.

These cities are for the protection of Israelites, foreigners living among you, and traveling merchants. Anyone who accidentally kills someone may flee there for safety.

all life would cease, and humanity would turn again to dust.

Can the dead live again? If so, this would give me hope through all my years of struggle, and I would eagerly await the release of death.

The living at least know they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, nor are they remembered.

Blood has flowed like water all around Jerusalem; no one is left to bury the dead.

May they disappear like water into thirsty ground. Make their weapons useless in their hands.

You turn people back to dust, saying,“ Return to dust, you mortals!”

For God does not show favoritism.

My life is poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax, melting within me.

This is what the Lord says:“ Was your mother sent away because I divorced her? Did I sell you as slaves to my creditors? No, you were sold because of your sins. And your mother, too, was taken because of your sins.Why was no one there when I came? Why didn’t anyone answer when I called? Is it because I have no power to rescue? No, that is not the reason! For I can speak to the sea and make it dry up! I can turn rivers into deserts covered with dying fish.

Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away.

But if it was simply an accident permitted by God, I will appoint a place of refuge where the slayer can run for safety.

Then Peter replied,“ I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism.

“ Even a tree has more hope! If it is cut down, it will sprout again and grow new branches.Though its roots have grown old in the earth and its stump decays,at the scent of water it will bud and sprout again like a new seedling.“ But when people die, their strength is gone. They breathe their last, and then where are they?As water evaporates from a lake and a river disappears in drought,people are laid to rest and do not rise again. Until the heavens are no more, they will not wake up nor be roused from their sleep.

He doesn’t care how great a person may be, and he pays no more attention to the rich than to the poor. He made them all.

“ For the Lord your God is the God of gods and Lord of lords. He is the great God, the mighty and awesome God, who shows no partiality and cannot be bribed.

“ But at last my people will confess their sins and the sins of their ancestors for betraying me and being hostile toward me.

“ Well, tell Joab not to be discouraged,” David said.“ The sword devours this one today and that one tomorrow! Fight harder next time, and conquer the city!”

For people and animals share the same fate— both breathe and both must die. So people have no real advantage over the animals. How meaningless!Both go to the same place— they came from dust and they return to dust.

They sent some of their disciples, along with the supporters of Herod, to meet with him.“ Teacher,” they said,“ we know how honest you are. You teach the way of God truthfully. You are impartial and don’t play favorites.

And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time here as“ temporary residents.”
