Job 15:31

Job 15:31

29 He will not be rich,
Nor will his wealth ^acontinue,
Nor will his possessions overspread the earth.

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.

35 ^aThey conceive trouble and bring forth futility;
Their womb prepares deceit.”

John Wesley's Notes

<< Job 15:30

Job 15:32 >>

Vanity - In the vain and deceitful things of this world, he subjoins a general caution to all men to take heed of running into the same error and mischief. Vanity - Disappointment and dissatisfaction, and the loss of all his imaginary felicity. Recompence - Heb. his exchange; he shall exchange one vanity for another, a pleasing vanity for a vexatious vanity.
