Job 12:1-6

English Standard Version

² “No doubt you are the people,
    and wisdom will die with you.
³ But I have ^(A)understanding as well as you;
    I am not inferior to you.
    Who does not know ^(B)such things as these?
⁴ I am ^(C)a laughingstock to my friends;
    I, who ^(D)called to God and he answered me,
    a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.
⁵ In the thought of one who is ^(E)at ease there is contempt for misfortune;
    it is ready for those whose feet slip.
^6 (F)The tents of robbers are at peace,
    and those who provoke God are secure,
    who bring their god in their hand.^[a]
