New Testament

Job 20:11-20 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

11. His bones were full of his youthful vigor but it will lie down with him in the dust.

12. Though evil is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue,

13. though he cannot bear to let it go and holds it in his mouth,

14. his food turns sour in his stomach; it becomes the venom of serpents within him.

15. He swallows riches and vomits them up; God empties it out of his stomach.

16. He sucks the poison of serpents; fangs of a viper kill him.

17. He will not look at streams, rivers flowing with honey and butter.

18. He gives back what he toiled for without swallowing it; he will not enjoy the riches of his trade.

19. For he has oppressed and abandoned the poor. He has seized a house he did not build.

20. For he knows no satisfaction from his greed, he cannot save himself by his desires.
