Ecclesiastes 8:14

Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

Also another vanity there is, that is done on earth. Just [or rightwise] men there be, to whom evils come, as if they did the works of wicked men; and wicked men there be, that be as secure, as if they had done the deeds of just [or rightwise] men; but I deem also this most vain.
