Job 15:32 - Adam Clarke

Job 15:32

30 He will not depart from darkness;
The flame will dry out his branches,
And ^aby the breath of His mouth he will go away.

31 Let him not ^atrust in futile things, deceiving himself,
For futility will be his reward.

32 It will be accomplished ^abefore his time,
And his branch will not be green.

33 He will shake off his unripe grape like a vine,
And cast off his blossom like an olive tree.

34 For the company of hypocrites will be barren,
And fire will consume the tents of bribery.

Job 15:32

It shall be accomplished before his time - I believe the Vulgate gives the true sense: Antequam dies ejus impleantur, peribit; "He shall perish before his time; before his days are completed."

8.He shall be removed by a violent death, and not live out half his days.

9.And his branch shall not be green - there shall be no scion from his roots; all his posterity shall fail.
