Apparent injustice » Sometimes attributed to God
O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!
The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly.
Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.
All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.
Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?
Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?
Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
