Job 20:14

¹² Though evil is sweet in his mouth and he conceals it under his tongue,

¹³ though he cannot bear to let it go and keeps it in his mouth,

yet in his stomach his food sours into the venom of cobras within him.

¹⁵ He swallows wealth but vomits it out; God will force it from his stomach.

¹⁶ He will suck the poison of cobras; the fangs of a viper will kill him.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
