Apparent injustice » Sometimes attributed to God
O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou will not hear? I cry out to thee of violence, and thou will not save.
The tents of robbers prosper, and those who provoke God are secure. Into whose hand God brings [abundantly].
Why do the wicked live, become old, yea, grow mighty in power?
for all the day long I have been plagued, and chastened every morning.
All this I have seen in my days of vanity. There is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who prolongs [his life] in his evil-doing.
All things come alike to all. There is one event to the righteous man and to the wicked man, to the good man and to the clean man and to the unclean man, to him who sacrifices and to him who does not sacrifice, as is the good man,
Thou are righteous, O LORD, when I contend with thee. Yet I would reason the case with thee. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are all those at ease who deal very treacherously?
Yet ye say, The way of LORD is not equitable. Hear now, O house of Israel. Is not my way equitable? Are not your ways inequitable?
saying, These last did one hour, and thou have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the heat.
