'Dust' in the Bible

The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.

ו VavHe ground my teeth on graveland made me cower in the dust.

He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

Those who were used to feasting on delicate food are wasted in the streets: those who as children were dressed in purple are stretched out on the dust.

The crown has fallen from our head [our honor is covered with dust]!Woe to us, for we have sinned!
