Job 5:13

     13. Paul (1Co 3:19) quoted this clause with the formula establishing its inspiration, "it is written." He cites the exact Hebrew words, not as he usually does the Septuagint, Greek version (Ps 9:15). Haman was hanged on the gallows he prepared for Mordecai (Es 5:14; 7:10).

      the wise—that is, "the cunning."

      is carried headlong—Their scheme is precipitated before it is ripe.
