In context
10 His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods.
11 His bones are full [of the sin] of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust.
12 Though wickedness may be sweet in his mouth, [though] he may hide it under his tongue;
13 [Though] he may spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:
14 [Yet] his food in his bowels is turned, [it is] the gall of asps within him.
15 He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly.
16 He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.
