'Wastes' in the Bible

With kings and counsellors of earth, These building wastes for themselves.

While I waste away like a rotten thing,Like a garment that is moth-eaten.

"But when a person dies and wastes away, when a person breathes his last, where will he be?

As the waters fail from the sea, and the river wastes and dries up,

His flesh wastes away to nothing,and his unseen bones stick out.

to whom I appointed the steppe for its home, the salt wastes as its dwelling place?
