From dust you came to the dust you shall return

God, who formed Adam out of the dust of the ground, announces that Adam will one day die and return to dust. And it would end in Adam's eventual death. Now God concludes by saying that instead of work being a joyful source of purpose and meaning in Adam's life, it would be a lifelong source of necessary frustration. The ground itself would be cursed, making it difficult to get the crops they would need to live. In the previous two verses, God revealed that Adam's working life in the fields would be marked by pain and frustration. This verse concludes God's curse on Adam for his sin, and it has a devastating ring of finality. For you are dust, and you will return to dust.'' Genesis 3:19, CSB: 'You will eat bread by the sweat of your brow until you return to the ground, since you were taken from it. For you were made from dust, and to dust you will return.'' Genesis 3:19, NLT: 'By the sweat of your brow will you have food to eat until you return to the ground from which you were made. Genesis 3:19, NASB: 'By the sweat of your face You shall eat bread, Until you return to the ground, Because from it you were taken For you are dust, And to dust you shall return.'' Genesis 3:19, KJV: 'In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.' Genesis 3:19, ESV: 'By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.вЂќ' Genesis 3:19 Parallel Verses Genesis 3:19, NIV: 'By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken for dust you are and to dust you will return.''
