Ecclesiastes 8:9-14

9AllH3605 thisH2088 I have seenH7200 and appliedH5414 my 1mindH3820 to everyH3605 deedH4639 that has been doneH6213 underH8478 the sunH8121 whereinH834 a manH120 has exercisedH7980 2authorityH7980 over another manH120 to his hurtH7451.

10SoH3651 then, I have seenH7200 the wickedH7563 buriedH6912, those who used to goH935 in and out from the holyH6918 placeH4725, and they are 3soon forgottenH7911 in the cityH5892 whereH834 they didH6213 thusH3651. ThisH2088 tooH1571 is futilityH1892. 11BecauseH834 the 4sentenceH6599 against an evilH7451 deedH4639 is not executedH6213 quicklyH4120, thereforeH5921H3651 5the heartsH3820 of the sonsH1121 of menH120 among them are givenH4390 fullyH4390 to doH6213 evilH7451. 12AlthoughH834 a sinnerH2398 doesH6213 evilH7451 a hundredH3967 times and may 6lengthenH748 his life, stillH3588H1571 I knowH3045 that it will be 7wellH2896 for those who fearH3372 GodH430, whoH834 fearH3372 8Him openlyH4480H6440. 13But it will 9not be wellH2896 for the evilH7563 manH7563 and he will not lengthenH748 his daysH3117 like a 10shadowH6738, becauseH834 he does not fearH3372 GodH430.

14ThereH3426 is futilityH1892 whichH834 is doneH6213 on the earthH776, that is, thereH3426 are 11righteousH6662 menH6662 to whomH834 it 12happensH5060 according to the deedsH4639 of the wickedH7563. On the other hand, thereH3426 are 13evilH7563 menH7563 to whomH7945 it 14happensH5060 according to the deedsH4639 of the righteousH6662. I sayH559 that thisH2088 tooH1571 is futilityH1892.
