Ecclesiastes 3:19
For that which happens to the sons of men happens to animals. Even one thing happens to them. As the one dies, so the other dies. Yes, they have all one breath; and man has no advantage over the animals, for all is vanity.Ecclesiastes 3:19 · WEB

- ગુજરાતી — સભાશિક્ષક ૩:૧૯
- કેમ કે માણસોને જે થાય છે તે જ પશુઓને થાય છે. તેઓની એક જ સ્થિતિ થાય છે. જેમ એક મરે છે. તેમ બીજું પણ મરે છે. તે સર્વને એક જ પ્રાણ હોય છે તેથી મનુષ્ય પશુઓ કરતાં જરાય શ્રેષ્ઠ નથી. શું તે સઘળું વ્યર્થ નથી?
- हिन्दी — सभोपदेशक ३:१९
- क्योंकि जैसी मनुष्यों की वैसी ही पशुओं की भी दशा होती है; दोनों की वही दशा होती है, जैसे एक मरता वैसे ही दूसरा भी मरता है। सभी की श्वास एक सी है, और मनुष्य पशु से कुछ बढ़कर नहीं; सब कुछ व्यर्थ ही है।
