Job 12:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² “You people think you are the only ones who matter!
    You are sure that wisdom will die with you!
³ But I have a brain, just like you.
    I’m as clever as you are.
    In fact, everyone knows as much as you do.

⁴ “My friends laugh at me all the time,
    even though I called out to God and he answered.
My friends laugh at me,
    even though I’m honest and right.
