20. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21. Who knows the spirit of man that goes upward, and the spirit of the beast that goes downward to the earth?
22. Therefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his lot: for who can bring him to see what shall be after him?
