Ecclesiastes 8:14
Here is a pointless thing that happens on earth: A righteous man receives what happens to the wicked, and a wicked man receives what happens to the righteous. I concluded that this, too, is pointless.
Ecclesiastes 7:15
I have seen it all during my pointless life: both a righteous person who dies while he is righteous, and a wicked person who lives to an old age, while remaining wicked.
Malachi 3:15
and, "Now we call the arrogant one blessed. Those who do evil prosper and those who challenge God escape the consequences.'"
Job 21:7
"Why do the wicked live to reach old age and increase in power and wealth, too?
Ecclesiastes 2:14
The wise use their eyes, but the fool walks in darkness. I also perceived that the same outcome affects them all.
Job 9:22-24
I say it's all the same he destroys both the blameless and the guilty.
Job 21:17-34
"How often do the wicked have their lights put out? Does calamity ever fall on them? Will God in his anger ever apportion their destruction?
Job 24:21-25
"They prey on the barren woman, and do no favors for widows.
Psalm 73:3
For I was envious of the proud when I observed the prosperity of the wicked.
Psalm 73:12-14
Just look at these wicked people! They're perpetually carefree as they increase their wealth.
Ecclesiastes 4:4
Then I examined all sorts of work, including all kinds of excellent achievements that create envy in others. This also is pointless and chasing after the wind.
Ecclesiastes 4:8
Consider someone who is alone, having neither son nor brother. There is no end to all of his work, and he is never satisfied with wealth. "So for whom do I work," he asks, "and deprive myself of pleasure?" This, too, is pointless and a terrible tragedy.
Ecclesiastes 9:1-3
In light of all of this, I committed myself to explain it this way: the righteous and the wise, along with everything they do, are in the hands of God. Furthermore, as to love and hate, no human being knows everything concerning them.
Ecclesiastes 10:5
Here's another tragedy that I've observed on earth, a kind of error that comes from an overseer:
Jeremiah 12:1
You are righteous, LORD, even when I bring a complaint to you. But I want to discuss justice with you. Why does the way of the wicked prosper, while all who are treacherous are at ease?
