Contextual Overview
1 And Iob answered, and sayd, 2 No doubt but ye are the people, and wisedome shall die with you. 3 But I haue vnderstanding as well as you, I am not inferiour to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these? 4 I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth vpon God, and he answereth him: the iust vpright man is laughed to scorne. 5 He that is ready to slippe with his feet, is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.

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.
