And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and did not know him, they lifted up their voice and wept. And each one tore his robe, and they sprinkled dust upon their heads toward Heaven.

How much less in those who live in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth?

For affliction does not come forth from the dust, nor does trouble spring up out of the ground;

My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken and has run afresh.

And why do You not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I shall sleep in the dust, and You shall seek me in the morning, but I shall not be.

Remember, I beseech You, that You have formed me as the clay; and will You bring me into the dust again?

Though its root becomes old in the earth, and its stump dies in the dust,

The waters wear away the stones; the outpouring of it washes the dust of the earth; and You cause the hope of man to perish.

They conceive mischief, and bring forth evil, and their belly prepares deceit.

I have sewed sackcloth on my skin and thrust my horn in the dust.

They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our descent together is in the dust.

His bones are full of his youthful vigor, but it lies down with him in the dust.

They lie down together in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.

Then you shall lay up gold like dust, and among the rock of the torrents of Ophir.

my lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.

Though he heaps up silver like the dust, and prepares clothing like the clay,

Its stones are the place of sapphires; and it has dust of gold.

He has cast me into the mire, and I have become like dust and ashes.

If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot has hurried to deceit,

all flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again to dust.

when the dust is melted into hardness, and the clods cling fast together?

For she leaves her eggs to the earth, and lets them warm in the dust,

Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in darkness.

Therefore I despise myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
