"He will permit it, and not abandon it, and he will conceal it in his throat. "
— Job 20:13, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:”
“Though he spare it, and will not let it go, But keep it still within his mouth; ”
“though he spare it, and will not let it go, but keep it still within his mouth;”
“if he retains it for himself and does not let it go, and holds it fast in his mouth,”
“He will spare it, and not leave it, and will hide it in his throat.”
“Though he takes care of it, and does not let it go, but keeps it still in his mouth;”
“Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:”
His sons will be worn away by poverty, and his own hands will deliver his grief to him.
His bones will be filled with the vices of his youth, and they will sleep with him in the dust.
For, when evil will be sweet in his mouth, he will hide it under his tongue.
He will permit it, and not abandon it, and he will conceal it in his throat.
His bread in his belly will be turned into the venom of snakes within him.
The riches that he devours, he will vomit up, and from his stomach God will draw them out.
He will suck the head of snakes, and the tongue of the viper will kill him.
