1 Job's Reply to Zophar Job said to his friends: 2 You think you are so great, with all the answers. 3 But I know as much as you do, and so does everyone else. 4 I have always lived right, and God answered my prayers; now friends make fun of me. 5 It's easy to condemn those who are suffering, when you have no troubles.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Job answered and said. In reply to Zophar, and in defence of himself; what is recorded in this and the two following chapters.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XII
Job reproves the boasting of his friends, and shows their
uncharitableness towards himself, 1-5;
asserts that even the tabernacles of robbers prosper; and that,
notwithstanding, God is the Governor of the world; a truth
which is proclaimed by all parts of the creation whether
animate or inanimate, and by the revolutions which take place
in states, 6-25.
