Job 15:29

Eliphaz's Second Response To Job

²⁸ “He has lived in desolate cities,
In houses no one would inhabit,
Which are destined to become ruins.
²⁹ “He will not become rich, nor will his wealth endure;
And his grain will not bend down to the ground.
³⁰ “He will not escape from darkness;
The flame will wither his shoots,
And by the breath of His mouth he will go away.
