Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 141 of Psalms. Psalm 141 is a prayer of spiritual vigilance. The psalmist asks that his prayer be like incense and that God guard his mouth so he will not participate in the evil of others. He also asks to receive the correction of the righteous as an act of kindness. The request to be preserved from the traps of the wicked shows that integrity requires both inner self-control and external protection.

Unsere Gebeine sind zerstreut bis zur Hölle, wie wenn einer das Land pflügt und zerwühlt.
Como quien hiende y rompe la tierra, Son esparcidos nuestros huesos a la boca de la sepultura.
Como cuando se ara y se abre la tierra, nuestros huesos han sido esparcidos a la boca del Seol.
Comme quand on laboure et qu'on fend la terre, Ainsi nos os sont dispersés à l'entrée du séjour des morts.
Le nostre ossa sono sparse su la bocca del sepolcro, Come quando altri spezza, e schianta legne per terra.
Os nossos ossos são espalhados à boca da sepultura como se alguém fendera e partira lenha na terra.
我們的 骨頭散落在陰間的口, 就像人耕田刨地 一樣。
