3:21 Who really knows if the human spirit 1 ascends upward,
and the animal’s spirit descends into the earth?
3:19 For the fate of humans 2 and the fate of animals are the same:
As one dies, so dies the other; both have the same breath.
There is no advantage for humans over animals,
for both are fleeting.
