Job 20:12-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² If evil tastes sweet in his mouth,
and he tucks it under his tongue,
¹³ if he hoards it for himself,
and he does not let it go,
but savors it on his palate,
¹⁴ his food will turn into cobra venom in his stomach.
¹⁵ He swallowed wealth, but he vomits it up.
God makes him expel it from his belly.
¹⁶ He sucks the poison of cobras.
The fangs of a viper kill him.
¹⁷ He will not see the streams,
the rivers that flow with honey and cream.
¹⁸ Without digesting it, he gives up the produce for which he labored.
He does not enjoy the wealth for which he traded,
¹⁹ because he has crushed and abandoned the poor,
and he has stolen a house he did not build.
