fold.

..but the decision is between calling and folding, not raising and folding. any worse hand that calls behind you is making a big mistake and you'd minimize your losses vs. SB.

Definitely don't call. The pot is small and probably not worth the effort, but if you want to continue in the hand, raise to get the pot heads-up; you're dead against a 5 and some Jacks but SB could have a pocket pair under J as well. If you both have J's, raising will get you a showdown & you'll hopefully split with a high river card - if you get 3bet, he's got you beat. Also, a turn raise might knock out a better Jack.

BTW if hero just calls, all overcalls are getting proper odds on straight & flush draws.

which are likely not out

1. because a four flush or oesd almost always bets the flop.
2. because the players yet to act are limpers and typical limping hands are unlikely to have straight draws with a 4 and a 5.
