Job 20:16-18
New Catholic Bible
16 “Such a person will suck the venom of asps;
the tongue of a viper will slay him.
17 He will see no streams of oil
or rivers flowing with honey and cream.[a]
18 He will be forced to restore his gains without enjoying them;
even though his wealth increased, he will derive no enjoyment.
