Ecclesiastes 3:15-17
Wycliffe Bible

15 That thing that is made, dwelleth perfectly; those things that shall come, were before; and God restoreth that, that is gone (and God restoreth what is gone).

16 I saw under [the] sun unfaithfulness in the place of doom; and wickedness in the place of rightfulness. (I saw under the sun unfaithfulness in place of judgement, or of justice; and wickedness in place of righteousness, or of uprightness.)

17 And I said in mine heart, The Lord shall deem a just man, and an unfaithful man; and the time of each thing shall be then. (And I said in my heart, The Lord shall judge the righteous, and the unfaithful; and then shall be the proper time for each thing.)

Ecclesiastes 3:15-17
New International Version

15 Whatever is has already been,(A)
    and what will be has been before;(B)
    and God will call the past to account.[a]

16 And I saw something else under the sun:

In the place of judgment—wickedness was there,
    in the place of justice—wickedness was there.

17 I said to myself,

“God will bring into judgment(C)
    both the righteous and the wicked,
for there will be a time for every activity,
    a time to judge every deed.”(D)
