Ecclesiastes 8:13
But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God.
More from Ecclesiastes 8
Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.
I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.
Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth
Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest
Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
