Job 20:13-22 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

13. Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:

14. Yet his food in his body is soured, it is the gall of asps within him.

15. He has swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly.

16. He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.

17. He shall not see the rivers, the brooks flowing with honey and butter.

18. That which he labored for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down: from the proceeds of business he shall not rejoice.

19. Because he has oppressed and has forsaken the poor; because he has violently taken away a house which he built not;

20. Surely he shall not feel quietness in his heart, he shall not save of that which he desired.

21. There shall none of his food be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods.

22. In the fullness of his sufficiency he shall be in distress: every hand of the wicked shall come upon him.
