Job 20:12 in context

  1. 10His children will seek the favor of the poor.
    His hands will give back his wealth.
  2. 11His bones are full of his youth,
    but youth will lie down with him in the dust.
  3. 12“Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth,
    though he hide it under his tongue,

    but keep it still within his mouth;
  5. 14yet his food in his bowels is turned.
    It is cobra venom within him.
