Job 12:4-6
New International Version
4 “I have become a laughingstock(A) to my friends,(B)
though I called on God and he answered(C)—
a mere laughingstock, though righteous and blameless!(D)
5 Those who are at ease have contempt(E) for misfortune
as the fate of those whose feet are slipping.(F)
6 The tents of marauders are undisturbed,(G)
and those who provoke God are secure(H)—
those God has in his hand.[a]
