Job 20:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² “Anything that is evil tastes sweet to them.
    They keep it under their tongues for a while.
¹³ They can’t stand to let it go.
    So they hold it in their mouths.
¹⁴ But their food will turn sour in their stomachs.
    It will become like the poison of a serpent inside them.
