New Testament

Job 20:12-19 God's Word Translation (GW)

12. “Though evil is sweet in his mouthand he hides it under his tongue. . . .

13. Though he savors it and won’t let go of itand he holds it on the roof of his mouth,

14. the food in his belly turns sour.It becomes snake venom in his stomach.

15. He vomits up the riches that he swallowed.God forces them out of his stomach.

16. The godless person sucks the poison of snakes.A viper’s fang kills him.

17. He won’t be able to drink from the streamsor from the rivers of honey and buttermilk.

18. He will give back what he earned without enjoying it.He will get no joy from the profits of his business

19. because he crushed and abandoned the poor.He has taken by force a house that he didn’t build.
