ગુજરાતીસભાશિક્ષક ૩:૨૦
એક જ જગાએ સર્વ જાય છે સર્વ ધૂળના છીએ અને અંતે સર્વ ધૂળમાં જ મળી જાય છે.
हिन्दीसभोपदेशक ३:२०
सब एक स्थान में जाते हैं; सब मिट्टी से बने हैं, और सब मिट्टी में फिर मिल जाते हैं।

In context

18I said in my heart, “As for the sons of men, God tests them, so that they may see that they themselves are like animals.

19For 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.

20All go to one place. All are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.

21Who knows the spirit of man, whether it goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, whether it goes downward to the earth?”

22Therefore I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his works, for that is his portion; for who can bring him to see what will be after him?
