## Job 20:19-21 in Context (Verses 16–24 KJV)
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/20/16) He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper’s tongue shall slay him.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/job/20/17) He shall not see the rivers, the floods, the brooks of honey and butter.*
 
 [18 ](/kjv/job/20/18) That which he laboured for shall he restore, and shall not swallow *it* down: according to *his* substance *shall* the restitution *be*, and he shall not rejoice *therein*.*
 
 [19 ](/kjv/job/20/19) Because he hath oppressed *and* hath forsaken the poor; *because* he hath violently taken away an house which he builded not;*
 
 [20 ](/kjv/job/20/20) Surely he shall not feel quietness in his belly, he shall not save of that which he desired.*
 
 [21 ](/kjv/job/20/21) There shall none of his meat be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods.*
 
 [22 ](/kjv/job/20/22) In the fulness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits: every hand of the wicked shall come upon him.*
 
 [23 ](/kjv/job/20/23) *When* he is about to fill his belly, *God* shall cast the fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain *it* upon him while he is eating.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/job/20/24) He shall flee from the iron weapon, *and* the bow of steel shall strike him through.
 
[Job 19](/kjv/job/19) [Job 21](/kjv/job/21)
