Job 20:15-17
Easy-to-Read Version

15 The evil man will spit out the riches he has swallowed.
    God will make him vomit them up.
16 What he drank will be like a snake’s poison;
    it will kill him like the bite of a deadly snake.
17 He will never again enjoy so much wealth—
    rivers flowing with honey and cream.[a]
