Job 20

11 Ref His bones are full of his youth, But youth shall lie down with him in the dust.

12 Ref "Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, Though he hide it under his tongue,

13 Ref Though he spare it, and will not let it go, But keep it still within his mouth;

14 Ref Yet his food in his bowels is turned. It is cobra venom within him.

15 Ref He has swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again. God will cast them out of his belly.

16 Ref He shall suck cobra venom. The viper's tongue shall kill him.

17 Ref He shall not look at the rivers, The flowing streams of honey and butter.

18 Ref That for which he labored he shall restore, and shall not swallow it down; According to the substance that he has gotten, he shall not rejoice.

19 Ref For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house, and he shall not build it up.

20 Ref "Because he knew no quietness within him, He shall not save anything of that in which he delights.

21 Ref There was nothing left that he didn't devour, Therefore his prosperity shall not endure.

22 Ref In the fullness of his sufficiency, distress shall overtake him: The hand of everyone who is in misery shall come on him.

23 Ref When he is about to fill his belly, God will cast the fierceness of his wrath on him. It will rain on him while he is eating.

24 Ref He shall flee from the iron weapon. The bronze arrow shall strike him through.

25 Ref He draws it forth, and it comes out of his body. Yes, the glittering point comes out of his liver. Terrors are on him.

26 Ref All darkness is laid up for his treasures. An unfanned fire shall devour him. It shall consume that which is left in his tent.

27 Ref The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, The earth shall rise up against him.

28 Ref The increase of his house shall depart; They shall rush away in the day of his wrath.

29 Ref This is the portion of a wicked man from God, The heritage appointed to him by God."
