1 Then Job responded,2 "Truly then you are the people, And with you wisdom will die! 3 "But I have intelligence as well as you; I am not inferior to you. And who does not know such things as these? 4 "I 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 calamity in contempt, As prepared for those whose feet slip.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XII
Job reproves the boasting of his friends, and shows their
uncharitableness towards himself, 1-5;
asserts that even the tabernacles of robbers prosper; and that,
notwithstanding, God is the Governor of the world; a truth
which is proclaimed by all parts of the creation whether
animate or inanimate, and by the revolutions which take place
in states, 6-25.
