Job 20:15-20

15The wealth that he consumed he vomits up, God will make him throw it out of his stomach.

16He sucks the poison of serpents; the fangs of a viper kill him.

17He will not look on the streams, the rivers, which are the torrents of honey and butter.

18He gives back the ill-gotten gain without assimilating it; he will not enjoy the wealth from his commerce.

19For he has oppressed the poor and abandoned them; he has seized a house which he did not build.

20For he knows no satisfaction in his appetite; he does not let anything he desires escape.
