New King James Version

3 But I have [a]understanding as well as you;
I am not (A)inferior to you.
Indeed, who does not know such things as these?

4 “I(B) am one mocked by his friends,
Who (C)called on God, and He answered him,
The just and blameless who is ridiculed.
5 A [b]lamp is despised in the thought of one who is at ease;
It is made ready for (D)those whose feet slip.
