People who make fun of me are all around me. I’m forced to watch as they attack me with their words.

Keep an eye on anyone who doesn’t obey the teachings in our letter. Don’t have anything to do with that person. Then they will feel ashamed.

Like ungodly people, they were mean and made fun of me. They ground their teeth at me in hate.

Is there anyone like Job? He accuses God as easily as he drinks water.

“ Job, would a wise person answer with a lot of meaningless talk? Would they fill their stomach with the hot east wind?Would they argue with useless words? Would they give worthless speeches?

“ Who can prove that what I’m saying is wrong? Who can prove that my words aren’t true?”

I never sat around with those who go to wild parties. I never had a good time with them. I sat alone because you had put your powerful hand on me. Your anger against sin was burning inside me.

Lord, put them to shame so that they will seek you.

No one can question the truth. So teach what is true. Then those who oppose you will be ashamed. That’s because they will have nothing bad to say about us.

“ 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.

They told you,“ In the last days, some people will make fun of the truth. They will follow their own ungodly desires.”
