Job 5:13

13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

Job 5:13 In-Context

11 he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.
12 He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.
13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.
14 They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as in the night.
15 But he saves the needy from the sword of their mouth, from the hand of the mighty.
