| Just as you do not know how the breath comes to the bones in the mother's womb, so you do not know the work of God, who makes everything. | As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all. |
| Banish anxiety from your mind, and put away pain from your body; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity. | Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity. |
