Ecclesiastes 8:11-13
11BecauseH834 the 1sentenceH6599 against an evilH7451 deedH4639 is not executedH6213 quicklyH4120, thereforeH5921H3651 2the heartsH3820 of the sonsH1121 of menH120 among them are givenH4390 fullyH4390 to doH6213 evilH7451. 12AlthoughH834 a sinnerH2398 doesH6213 evilH7451 a hundredH3967 times and may 3lengthenH748 his life, stillH3588H1571 I knowH3045 that it will be 4wellH2896 for those who fearH3372 GodH430, whoH834 fearH3372 5Him openlyH4480H6440. 13But it will 6not be wellH2896 for the evilH7563 manH7563 and he will not lengthenH748 his daysH3117 like a 7shadowH6738, becauseH834 he does not fearH3372 GodH430.
