Went

Go to the ant, sluggard; consider her ways and be wise;

As I have seen, the ones who plow iniquity and sow wickedness reap the same.

Behold this: we have searched it; it is so. Hear it and know for yourself.

I will show you; hear me; and what I have seen I will declare,

I have been young, and am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, or his seed begging bread.

The upright shall see and rejoice; and all iniquity shall stop its mouth.

So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold the tears of the oppressed ones, and they had no comforter! And on the side of those who oppressed them there was power, but they had no comforter.

All things I have seen in the days of my vanity; there is a just one who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked one who prolongs life in his wickedness.

All this I have seen, and I gave my heart to every work that is done under the sun. There is a time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.
