He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive.

Verse 33 is found in chapter 15 of Job. Eliphaz describes the destiny of the wicked through images of anguish, fear, hunger, and destruction. His portrait functions as a general explanation of moral judgment, but within the dialogue it becomes an indirect accusation. The structure of the argument maintains the retributive logic: visible calamity equals prior wickedness.

Er wird abgerissen werden wie eine unzeitige Traube vom Weinstock, und wie ein Ölbaum seine Blüte abwirft.
El perderá su agraz como la vid, Y derramará su flor como la oliva.
Dejará caer sus uvas sin madurar, como la vid, y perderá sus flores, como el olivo.
Il sera comme une vigne dépouillée de ses fruits encore verts, Comme un olivier dont on a fait tomber les fleurs.
Il suo agresto sarà rapito come quel d’una vigna, E le sue gemme saranno sbattute come quelle di un ulivo.
Sacudirá as suas uvas verdes, como as da vide, e deixará cair a sua flor como a oliveira,
他必像葡萄樹,葡萄未熟就掉落; 又像橄欖樹,一開花就凋謝。
