Job 12:5

Job's Fourth Speech

⁴ I am a laughingstock to my friends,
by calling on God, who answers me.
The righteous and upright man is a laughingstock.
⁵ The one who is at ease holds calamity in contempt
and thinks it is prepared for those whose feet are slipping.
⁶ The tents of robbers are safe,
and those who provoke God are secure;
God’s power provides this.
