Evil must have been rampant among his countrymen during his times, trouble by this Jeremiah asked:
Jeremiah 12:1 (NASB)
12 Righteous are You, O Lord, that I would plead my case with You; Indeed I would discuss matters of justice with You: Why has the way of the wicked prospered? Why are all those who deal in treachery at ease?
Habakkuk in his prayer to God asked: "Why do you force me to see oppression? God did not belittle his prophet but reassured him.

Dear Voters to close, What would you say, If someone were to ask you: "What is the main theme of the Bible?"Why rush to close a question that the prophets of God asked their creator, he did not scoff at them but gradually revealed the answer to us by means of them and his Son. Read Isaiah 11:11:1-10
The Scriptures give assurance that the time will come when wickedness will no longer exist, as all those who stand in opposition to the Creator will be destroyed when his permission of wickedness will have served its purpose.—2Pe 3:9-13; Re 18:20-24; 19:11–20:3, 7-10.
I urge you to reconsider your decision Tks.
