Job 15:33

Judgment

31 Let him not deceive himself with trust in emptiness, for emptiness will be his reward.

32 It will be paid in full before his time, and his branch will not flourish.

He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes, like an olive tree that sheds its blossoms.

34 For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.

35 They conceive trouble and give birth to evil; their womb is pregnant with deceit.”

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
