Job 12:4

Job's Fourth Speech

³ “But I have intelligence as well as you;
I am not inferior to you.
And who does not know such things as these?
⁴ “I am a joke to my friends,
The one who called on God and He answered him;
The just and blameless man is a joke.
⁵ “He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt,
As prepared for those whose feet slip.
