Job 20:14-24 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

14. in his bowels his food is turned, the venom of horned vipers is within him.

15. He swallows riches, but he vomits them up; God drives them out from his stomach.

16. He will suck the poison of horned vipers; the viper’s tongue will kill him.

17. He will not enjoy the streams, the torrents of honey and curds.

18. Returning the products of his toil, he will not swallow; according to the profit of his trade, he will not enjoy,

19. for he has oppressed; he has abandoned the poor; he has seized a house but did not build it.

20. Because he has not known satisfaction in his stomach, he lets nothing escape that he desires.

21. There is nothing left after he has eaten; therefore his prosperity will not endure.

22. In the fullness of his excess he will be in distress; all of misery’s power will come upon him.

23. When his stomach fills up, God will send his burning anger upon him, and he will let it rain down upon him as his food.

24. “He will flee from an iron weapon, but an arrow of bronze will pierce him.
