Job 12:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 I am a laughingstock to my friends:[a]
‘He calls on God, and he answers him.’
A righteous, blameless man is a laughingstock.
5 Those at ease have contempt[b] for the thought of disaster,[c]
but it is ready for those unstable of foot.
6 The tents of the destroyers are at peace,
and there is security for those who provoke God,
for those whom God brings into his hand.[d]
