Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:
Aunque lo atesore y no lo quiera soltar, sino que lo retenga en su boca:
Describe cómo alguien se aferra a algo valioso sin querer dejarlo ir.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, set in the ancient Near East during the patriarchal era, Job is engaged in a dialogue with his friends who are trying to explain his suffering as divine punishment for sin. Zophar, one of Job's comforters, speaks in chapter 20 to assert that the wicked may temporarily enjoy their ill-gotten gains, but they will face God's inevitable judgment. This verse uses vivid imagery to depict the wicked person's reluctance to let go of sin, comparing it to holding something desirable in the mouth.
