Job 12:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴ “My friends laugh at me all the time,
    even though I called out to God and he answered.
My friends laugh at me,
    even though I’m honest and right.
⁵ People who have an easy life look down on those who have problems.
    They think trouble comes only to those whose feet are slipping.
⁶ Why doesn’t anyone bother the tents of robbers?
    Why do those who make God angry remain secure?
    They are in God’s hands!
