Job 20:16-22 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

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.
