Job 18:13-14

13It consumes the parts of his skin;
athe firstborn of death consumes his limbs.
14He is torn from the tent in which he trusted
and is brought to bthe king of terrors.

Psalms 49:8-15

8for cthe ransom of their life is costly
and can never suffice,
9that he should live on forever
and dnever see the pit.
10 For he sees ethat even the wise die;
fthe fool and the stupid alike must perish
and gleave their wealth to others.
11Their hgraves are their homes forever,
Septuagint, Syriac, Targum; Hebrew  Their inward thought was that their homes were forever

their dwelling places jto all generations,
though they kcalled lands by their own names.
12Man in his pomp lwill not remain;
mhe is like the beasts that perish.
13 This is the path of those who have nfoolish confidence;
yet after them people approve of their boasts.
Or and of those after them who approve of their boasts
 Selah
14Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol;
death shall be their shepherd,
and the upright pshall rule over them in the morning.
qTheir form shall be consumed rin Sheol, with no place to dwell.
15But God will sransom my soul from the power of Sheol,
for he will treceive me.  Selah

Psalms 89:48

48 uWhat man can live and never vsee death?
Who can deliver his soul from the power of wSheol?  Selah

Ecclesiastes 2:15-16

15Then I said in my heart, x“What happens to the fool will happen to me also. Why then have I been so very wise?” And I said in my heart that this also is vanity. 16For of the wise as of the fool there is yno enduring remembrance, seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. zHow the wise dies just like the fool!

Ecclesiastes 3:19

19 aaFor what happens to the children of man and what happens to the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts, for all is vanity.
The Hebrew term hebel can refer to a “vapor” or “mere breath” (see note on 1:2)

Ecclesiastes 8:8

8No man has power to acretain the spirit, ador power over the day of death. There is no aedischarge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

Ecclesiastes 9:5-6

5For the living know that they will die, but afthe dead know nothing, and they have no more reward, for agthe memory of them is forgotten. 6Their love and their hate and their envy have already perished, and forever they have no more share in all that is done under the sun.
