Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself, for emptiness will be his reward.

In context

29 He will not be rich, neither will his substance continue, neither will their possessions be extended on the earth.

30 He will not depart out of darkness. The flame will dry up his branches. He will go away by the breath of God’s mouth.

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

32 It will be accomplished before his time. His branch will not be green.

33 He will shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and will cast off his flower as the olive tree.
