NASB
"Though he desires it and will not let it go, But holds it in his mouth,"
— Job 20:13, NASB
“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 favor the poor, And his hands give back his wealth.
"His bones are full of his youthful vigor, But it lies down with him in the dust.
"Though evil is sweet in his mouth And he hides it under his tongue,
Though he desires it and will not let it go, But holds it in his mouth,
Yet his food in his stomach is changed To the venom of cobras within him.
"He swallows riches, But will vomit them up; God will expel them from his belly.
"He sucks the poison of cobras; The viper's tongue slays him.
