NASB
""He sucks the poison of cobras; The viper's tongue slays him."
— Job 20:16, NASB
“He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper’s tongue shall slay him.”
“He shall suck the poison of asps: The viper’s tongue shall slay him. ”
“He shall suck cobra venom. The viper's tongue shall kill him.”
“He sucks the poison of serpents; the fangs of a viper kill him.”
“He shall suck the head of asps, and the viper's tongue shall kill him.”
“He takes the poison of snakes into his mouth, the tongue of the snake is the cause of his death.”
“He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper’s tongue shall slay him.”
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.
"He does not look at the streams, The rivers flowing with honey and curds.
"He returns what he has attained And cannot swallow it; As to the riches of his trading, He cannot even enjoy them.
"For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor; He has seized a house which he has not built.
