'Spirits' in the Bible

for her house sinks down to deathand her ways to the land of the departed spirits.

But he doesn’t know that the departed spirits are there,that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits.

The man who strays from the way of wisdomwill come to restin the assembly of the departed spirits.
