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 you do not know what is the way of the wind, Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything. |
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 your heart, And put away evil from your flesh, For childhood and youth are vanity. |
