Is the "belly of a whore" phrase from the Bible?

Accepted answer
There is no such verse in the Bible. The reference to spilling one's seed on the ground comes from Genesis 38:9 NASB:
Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when he went in to his brother's wife, he wasted his seed on the ground in order not give offspring to his brother.
From here.
There's a fuller explanation from the site I linked to as well.
This is usually a saying that comes up in reference to masturbation. That's not really what the verse is talking about, but that subject has been discussed on this site here.
