Job 15:31

Eliphaz's Second Response To Job

³⁰ He will not escape from the darkness;
flames will wither his shoots,
and by the breath of God’s mouth, he will depart.
³¹ Let him not put trust in worthless things, being led astray,
for what he gets in exchange will prove worthless.
³² It will be accomplished before his time,
and his branch will not flourish.
