Job 15:31 in Context — Job 15

29 No enriquecerá, ni será firme su potencia, ni extenderá por la tierra su hermosura.

30 No se escapará de las tinieblas: la llama secará sus ramos, y con el aliento de su boca perecerá.

31 No confíe el iluso en la vanidad; porque ella será su recompensa.

32 El será cortado antes de su tiempo, y sus renuevos no reverdecerán.

33 El perderá su agraz como la vid, y derramará su flor como la oliva.
