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.

“Their throat is an open grave;
They [habitually] deceive with their tongues.”
“The venom of asps is beneath their lips.”

Their poison is like the venom of a serpent;
They are like the deaf horned viper that stops up its ear,

And the nursing child will [safely] play over the hole of the cobra,
And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den [and not be hurt].
