Ecclesiastes 8:12-14

New Century Version

¹² Though a sinner might do a hundred evil things and might live a long time, I know it will be better for those who honor God. ¹³ I also know it will not go well for evil people, because they do not honor God. Like a shadow, they will not last. ¹⁴ Sometimes something useless happens on earth. Bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people. I say that this is also useless.
