Job 12:1 In-Context

1 Then Job answered:

2 "You really think you are the only wise people and that when you die, wisdom will die with you!

3 But my mind is as good as yours; you are not better than I am. Everyone knows all these things.

5 Those who are comfortable don't care that others have trouble; they think it right that those people should have troubles.
