Because the arrows of the Almighty are within me,
My spirit drinks their poison;
The terrors of God are arrayed against me.

Yet his food turns [to poison] in his stomach;
It is the venom of vipers within him.

“He sucks the poison of vipers [which ill-gotten wealth contains];
The viper’s tongue slays him.

“For it is a fire which consumes to Abaddon (destruction, ruin, final torment);
And [illicit passion] would burn and rage and uproot all my [life’s] increase [destroying everything].
