18 I said to myself, “This happens so that God may test the children of Adam and they may see for themselves that they are like animals.”h 19 For the fate of the children of Adam and the fate of animals is the same.i As one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath. People have no advantage over animals since everything is futile. 20 All are going to the same place; all come from dust, and all return to dust.j
