Job 5:13
13 He catches ▼ the wise in their own craftiness, ▼and the counsel of the cunning ▼ is brought to a quick end. ▼
▼ The Niphal of מָהַר (mahar) means “to be hasty; to be irresponsible.” The meaning in the line may be understood in this sense: The counsel of the wily is hastened, that is, precipitated before it is ripe, i.e., frustrated (A. B. Davidson, Job, 39).
