Job 20:14

turned—Hebrew denotes a total change into a disagreeable contrary (Jeremiah 2:21; compare Revelation 10:9-10).

gall—in which the poison of the asp was thought to lie. It rather is contained in a sack in the mouth. Scripture uses popular language, where no moral truth is thereby endangered.
