Eccl 3, 20-21 Both go to the same place

Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth)

(Eccl 3, 20-21) Both go to the same place

[20] Both go to the same place; both were made from the dust, and to the dust they both return. [21] Who knows if the life-breath of the children of men goes upward and the life-breath of beasts goes earthward?

(CCC 703) The Word of God and his Breath are at the origin of the being and life of every creature (Cf. Pss 33:6; 104:30; Gen 1:2; 2:7; Eccl 3:20-21; Ezek 37:10): It belongs to the Holy Spirit to rule, sanctify, and animate creation, for he is God, consubstantial with the Father and the Son.... Power over life pertains to the Spirit, for being God he preserves creation in the Father through the Son (Byzantine liturgy, Sundays of the second mode, Troparion of Morning Prayer).
