Job 12:4-6
New American Standard Bible 1995
4 “I am a (A)joke to [a]my friends,
The one who called on God and He answered him;
The just and (B)blameless man is a joke.
5 “[b]He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt,
As prepared for those whose feet slip.
6 “The (C)tents of the destroyers prosper,
And those who provoke God (D)are secure,
[c]Whom God brings (E)into their power.
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]
