Ecclesiastes 8:11
KJV:
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
BSB:
When the sentence for a crime is not speedily executed, the hearts of men become fully set on doing evil.
Hebrew:
אֲשֶׁר֙ אֵין־ נַעֲשָׂ֣ה פִתְגָ֔ם מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה הָרָעָ֖ה מְהֵרָ֑ה עַל־ כֵּ֡ן מָלֵ֞א לֵ֧ב בְּֽנֵי־ הָאָדָ֛ם בָּהֶ֖ם לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת רָֽע׃
