Ecclesiastes 8:11-13

Amplified Bible

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].^{(A) 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.^(B)
