Job 12:4


Job 12:3 Job 12:4 (KJV) Job 12:5
But I have understanding as well as you; I [am] not inferior to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these?
I am [as] one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright [man is] laughed to scorn.
He that is ready to slip with [his] feet [is as] a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.
