New Testament

Job 20:11-18 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

11. He has the strength of his youth in his bones.But it will lie with him in the dust of death.

12. “Evil may taste sweet in the evil person’s mouth.He may hide it under his tongue.

13. He cannot stand to let go of it.So he keeps it in his mouth.

14. But his food will turn sour in his stomach.It will be like the poison of a snake inside him.

15. He has swallowed riches, but he will spit them out.God will make the evil person’s stomach vomit them up.

16. He will suck the poison of snakes.The snake’s poisonous fangs will kill him.

17. He will not admire the sparkling streamsor the rivers flowing with honey and cream.

18. He must give back what he worked for without eating it.He will not enjoy the money he made from his trading.
