'Shadow' in the Bible
Let darkness and the deepest shadow claim it; let a cloud settle on it; let whatever blackens the day terrify it!
Like a servant longing for the evening shadow, and like a hired man looking for his wages,
For we were born yesterday and do not have knowledge, since our days on earth are but a shadow.
before I depart, never to return, to the land of darkness and the deepest shadow,
to the land of utter darkness, like the deepest darkness, and the deepest shadow and disorder, where even the light is like darkness."
He grows up like a flower and then withers away; he flees like a shadow, and does not remain.
My eyes have grown dim with grief; my whole frame is but a shadow.
The lotus trees conceal it in their shadow; the poplars by the stream conceal it.
