The Tabernacles of Robbers Prosper in Life - Job 12

Job 12:1 And Job answered and said, 

Job 12:2 No doubt but  ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you. 

Job 12:3  But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior  to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these? 

Job 12:4 I  am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon  God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is  laughed to scorn. 

Job 12:5 He that is ready to slip with his  feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at  ease. 

Job 12:6 The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they  that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth  abundantly.
