Zophar continues speaking to Job.
## He swallows down riches...cast them out of his belly ##
Zophar compares wealth to food. Just like a person who eats too much food will vomit it back up, God will take the wealth from a rich person who stores up things for himself. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
## He will suck the poison of asps; the vipers tongue will kill him ##
Zophar says that holding onto wealth is evil, and like poison evil can kill a person. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
## vomit ##
when a full stomach throws food back out of the mouth
## cast ##
"throw"
## belly ##
AT: "stomach"
## suck ##
to pull liquid into the stomach by the mouth
