Job 12:4-6
Legacy Standard Bible
4 I am a (A)laughingstock to [a]my friends,
The one who called on God and He answered him;
The righteous and (B)blameless man is a laughingstock.
5 [b]As for upheaval, there is only contempt by the one who acts at ease,
But it is prepared for those whose feet slip.
6 The (C)tents of the destroyers are complacent,
And those who provoke God (D)are secure,
[c]Whom God brings (E)into their power.
Job 12:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 But I am a laughingstock to my neighbor—
I, who call on God, and he answers me—
I, a righteous and complete man, am a laughingstock!
5 Those who are carefree do not worry about disaster.
They think it is reserved for those whose feet are slipping.
6 The tents of raiders are undisturbed,
and those who provoke God are secure—
those who carry their god in their hand.[a]
