21 saying:

Naked I came from my mother’s womb,  * 1:21 Jb 3:10–11; 10:17–18; Jr 20:17–18

and naked I will leave this life.  * 1:21 Lit will return there; Ps 139:13,15,* 1:21 Ps 139:13,15

The Lord gives, and the  Lord takes away.

Blessed be the name of the  Lord.  * 1:21 Jb 38:1; Ps 113:2; 118:26
