Ecclesiastes 8:12-14
New King James Version
12 (A)Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that (B)it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him. 13 But it will not be well with the wicked; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.
14 There is a vanity which occurs on earth, that there are just men to whom it (C)happens according to the work of the wicked; again, there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the work of the (D)righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

Ecclesiastes 8:12-14
New International Version
12 Although a wicked person who commits a hundred crimes may live a long time, I know that it will go better(A) with those who fear God,(B) who are reverent before him.(C) 13 Yet because the wicked do not fear God,(D) it will not go well with them, and their days(E) will not lengthen like a shadow.
14 There is something else meaningless that occurs on earth: the righteous who get what the wicked deserve, and the wicked who get what the righteous deserve.(F) This too, I say, is meaningless.(G)
