Job 12:2-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 12
2'Truly then you are the people, And with you wisdom will die! 3But I have intelligence as well as you; I am not inferior to you. And who does not know such things as these? 4I am a joke to my friends, The one who called on God and He answered him; The just and blameless man is a joke. 5 He who is at ease holds disaster in contempt, As prepared for those whose feet slip.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
3But I also have a mind like you; I am not inferior to you. Who doesn’t know the things you are talking about?
4I am a laughingstock to my friends, by calling on God, who answers me. The righteous and upright man is a laughingstock.
5The one who is at ease holds calamity in contempt and thinks it is prepared for those whose feet are slipping.
New Living Translation
Chapter 12
2'You people really know everything, don’t you? And when you die, wisdom will die with you! 3Well, I know a few things myself — and you’re no better than I am. Who doesn’t know these things you’ve been saying? 4Yet my friends laugh at me, for I call on God and expect an answer. I am a just and blameless man, yet they laugh at me. 5People who are at ease mock those in trouble. They give a push to people who are stumbling.English Standard Version
Chapter 12
2"No doubt you are the people, and wisdom will die with you. 3But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Who does not know such things as these? 4I am a laughingstock to my friends; I, who called to God and he answered me, a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock. 5In the thought of one who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune; it is ready for those whose feet slip.New International Version
3But I have a mind as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Who does not know all these things?
4"I have become a laughingstock to my friends, though I called on God and he answered— a mere laughingstock, though righteous and blameless!
5Those who are at ease have contempt for misfortune as the fate of those whose feet are slipping.
New King James Version
