Job 12:1-5

1Then Job 1responded,2“Truly then 2you are the people, And with you wisdom will die!3But 3I have intelligence as well as you; I am not inferior to you. And 4who does not know such things as these?4I am a 5joke to 6my friends, The one who called on God and He answered him; The just and 7blameless man is a joke.5 8He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt, As prepared for those whose feet slip.
