The Problem of Injustice

Ecclesiastes 7:15-22
15
All this have I seen in my days of vanity: there is a righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his evil-doing.
16
Be not righteous overmuch; neither make thyself overwise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
17
Be not overmuch wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?
18
It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from that withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God shall come forth from them all.
19
Wisdom is a strength to the wise man more than ten rulers that are in a city.
20
Surely there is not a righteous man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
21
Also take not heed unto all words that are spoken, lest thou hear thy servant curse thee;
22
for oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others.
