Job 15:31

31 Let him not deceive himself by trusting what is worthless,

for he will get nothing in return.

31 Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself,

for emptiness will be his payment.

31 Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity:

For vanity shall be his recompence.

31 Let them no longer fool themselves by trusting in empty riches,

for emptiness will be their only reward.

31 Let him not trust in futile things, deceiving himself,

For futility will be his reward.

31 The wicked should not fool themselves by trusting what is useless.

If they do, they will get nothing in return.

31 Let him not trust in vanity, deceiving himself;

For vanity shall be his recompense.

31 Let him not trust in vanity: he is deceived, for vanity shall be his recompense;

31 He shouldn’t trust in worthless things and deceive himself 

because he will get worthless things in return. 

31 Let him not put trust in worthless things, being led astray,

for what he gets in exchange will prove worthless.

31 Let them not trust in emptiness, deceiving themselves,

for emptiness will be their recompense.

31 Let him not trust in emptiness—he will be deceiving himself—

for worthlessness will be his recompense.

31 Don’t let them fool themselves

by trusting in what is worthless.

They won’t get anything out of it.
