Job 12:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
3 But I have understanding as well as you;
I am not inferior to you.
Who does not know such things as these?
4 I am a laughing-stock to my friends;
I, who called upon God and he answered me,
a just and blameless man, I am a laughing-stock.
5 Those at ease have contempt for misfortune,[a]
but it is ready for those whose feet are unstable.
