Job 12:4

שְׂחֹ֤ק לְרֵעֵ֗הוּ אֶֽהְיֶ֫ה קֹרֵ֥א לֶאֱל֗וֹהַּ וַ֫יַּֽעֲנֵ֥הוּ שְׂח֤וֹק צַדִּ֖יק תָּמִ֣ים׃
shḥoq lreʿehv ʾehyeh qoreʾ leʾelvoha vayaʿanehv shḥvoq ṣadiyq tamiym
King James Version (KJV)

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

Modern English

I am a laughingstock to my friends; I, who called to God and he answered me, a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.
