³³ Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.

¹⁶ He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.

⁴ Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

¹⁷ For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the Lord.

¹⁸ Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.

¹⁹ As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

¹⁷ They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the Lord our God, and shall fear because of thee.
