After Adam ate the apple from the tree, God said to him:
"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."
Genesis 3:19, New International Version

In Genesis 3:19, the King James Authorised Bible says:
"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. "
This is probably the original source of your words.
