Job 5:27
Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; Hear it, and know thou it for thy good.

Ecclesiastes 8:9-11
All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man hath power over another to his hurt.So I saw the wicked buried, and they came to the grave; and they that had done right went away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city: this also is vanity.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.

Proverbs 6:32
He that committeth adultery with a woman is void of understanding: He doeth it who would destroy his own soul.

Psalms 37:25
I have been young, and now am old; Yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread.

Proverbs 6:6-19
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; Consider her ways, and be wise:Which having no chief, Overseer, or ruler,Provideth her bread in the summer, And gathereth her food in the harvest.How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep:So shall thy poverty come as a robber, And thy want as an armed man.A worthless person, a man of iniquity, Is he that walketh with a perverse mouth;That winketh with his eyes, that speaketh with his feet, That maketh signs with his fingers;In whose heart is perverseness, Who deviseth evil continually, Who soweth discord.Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; On a sudden shall he be broken, and that without remedy.There are six things which Jehovah hateth; Yea, seven which are an abomination unto him:Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood;A heart that deviseth wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief,A false witness that uttereth lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren.

Ecclesiastes 4:1-8
Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and, behold, the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.Wherefore I praised the dead that have been long dead more than the living that are yet alive;yea, better than them both did I esteem him that hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.Then I saw all labor and every skilful work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.Better is a handful, with quietness, than two handfuls with labor and striving after wind.Then I returned and saw vanity under the sun.There is one that is alone, and he hath not a second; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end of all his labor, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches. For whom then, saith he, do I labor, and deprive my soul of good? This also is vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.

Proverbs 12:11
He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread; But he that followeth after vain persons is void of understanding.
-
Ecclesiastes 7:15
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.

Proverbs 10:13
In the lips of him that hath discernment wisdom is found; But a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

Psalms 107:42
The upright shall see it, and be glad; And all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
