Job 20:15-20
15He swallows riches, But will 1vomit them up; God will expel them from his belly.16He sucks 2the poison of cobras; The viper’s tongue kills him.17He does not look at 3the streams, The rivers flowing with honey and curds.18He 4returns the product of his labor And cannot swallow it; As to the riches of his trading, He cannot even enjoy them.19For he has 5oppressed and neglected the poor; He has seized a house which he has not built.
20“Because he knew no quiet 6within him, He does 7not retain anything he desires.
