In perek Chet we see the Chacham and Yeray Elokim in an intense debate. They are arguing mainly about G-ds involvement in this world and the next one. The Yeray Elokim is upset that he sees evil people in the world and nothing is stopping them. G-d isn't punishing them therefor they keep on doing evil things. The Chaman tries to explain that G-d does punish he just saves it for the world to come. He doesn't punish people right on the spot because he wants to give everyone a time and a chance to repent.
The Yeray Elokim still doesn't like this and says the system is flawed. The Yeray Elokim ends that even if it seems that people are not being judged now G-d is saving all of his judgments for the next world and everyone will be held accountable for their actions.
The Chacham is the one who says the system is flawed, and the Yirei Elokim is the one defending the system.
