16. He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.
17. He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and butter.
18. That which he laboured for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down; according to the substance that he hath gotten, he shall not rejoice.
19. For he hath oppressed and forsaken the poor; he hath violently taken away an house, and he shall not build it up.
20. Because he knew no quietness within him, he shall not save aught of that wherein he delighteth.
21. There was nothing left that he devoured not; therefore his prosperity shall not endure.
22. In the fulness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits: the hand of every one that is in misery shall come upon him.
23. When he is about to fill his belly, God shall cast the fierceness of his wrath upon him, and shall rain it upon him while he is eating.
24. He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of brass shall strike him through.
25. He draweth it forth, and it cometh out of his body: yea, the glittering point cometh out of his gall; terrors are upon him.
26. All darkness is laid up for his treasures: a fire not blown by man shall devour him; it shall consume that which is left in his tent.
27. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him.
28. The increase of his house shall depart, his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.
