New Testament

Job 20:12-19 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

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.
