Ecclesiastes 8:11-14 - Although Evil Is Not Punished Swiftly, God Does Eventually Punish Sinners

¹¹ Because the sentence against an evil act is not executed quickly, the hearts of the sons of men are fully set to do evil. ¹² Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and his life [seemingly] is prolonged [in spite of his wickedness], still I know that it will be well with those who [reverently] fear God, who fear and worship Him openly [realizing His omnipresence and His power]. ¹³ But it will not be well for the evil man, nor will he lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God.

¹⁴ There is a meaningless and futile thing which is done on the earth: that is, there are righteous men whose gain is as though they were evil, and evil men whose gain is as though they were righteous. I say that this too is futility (meaningless, vain).
