Ecclesiastes 8:11

11When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong.

11Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of mankind among them are 8:11 Lit full to dofully given to do evil.

11Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.

11Because the sentence against an evil act is not executed quickly, the hearts of the sons of men are fully set to do evil.

11When the sentence for a crime is not speedily executed, the hearts of men become fully set on doing evil.

11Sometimes the sentence for a crime isn’t carried out quickly. So people make plans to commit even more crimes.
