4 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “return” →
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.
While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain:
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
