Genesis 3:17-19
17 He said to Adam: "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants from the fields.
19 By the sweat of your brow you shall eat bread, until your return to the ground. For from it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return."
Psalms 90:3-11
3 You turn men back into dust and say: "Return, O sons of men!"
4 For a thousand years in your eyes are like yesterday when it passes, or like a watch in the night.
5 You sweep mortals away in the sleep of death. They sprout again in the morning like grass.
6 In the morning it blossoms and grows up; in the evening it is cut down and withers.
7 Indeed, we are consumed by your anger and terrified by your wrath.
8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9 For all our days pass away in Your wrath; we finish our years like a murmur.
10 The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
11 Who knows the power of your anger and your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?

Romans 5:12-13
Romans 5:15
15 But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!
Romans 5:17

Romans 7:5-13
5 For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the Law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.
6 But now, by dying to what once held us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have known what sin was except through the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, "You shall not covet."
8 But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the Law, sin is dead.
9 Once I was alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10 So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
11 For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
12 So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
13 Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
Galatians 3:10-13
10 All who rely on works of the Law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
11 And it is clear that no one is justified before God by the Law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12 The Law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The one who does these things will live by them.”
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
Hebrews 9:27
27 Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judgment,
