Ecclesiastes 8:10

וּבְכֵ֣ן רָאִ֣יתִי רְשָׁעִ֣ים קְבֻרִ֡ים וָבָ֡אוּ וּמִמְּק֣וֹם קָד֣וֹשׁ יְהַלֵּ֡כוּ וְיִשְׁתַּכְּח֣וּ בָעִ֣יר אֲשֶׁ֣ר כֵּן עָשׂ֔וּ גַּם זֶ֖ה הָֽבֶל׃
vbken raʾiytiy rshaʿiym qburiym vabaʾv vmimqvom qadvosh yhalekv vyishtakḥv baʿiyr ʾasher ken ʿasv gam zeh habel
King James Version (KJV)

And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity.

Modern English

Then I saw the wicked buried. They used to go in and out of the holy place and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity.
