Ecclesiastes 3:17


Ecclesiastes 3:16 Ecclesiastes 3:17 (KJV) Ecclesiastes 3:18
And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, [that] wickedness [was] there; and the place of righteousness, [that] iniquity [was] there.
I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for [there is] a time there for every purpose and for every work.
I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
