13 He catches the wise in their craftiness,

and the schemes of the wily are swept away.

13 He taketh the wise in their own craftiness:

And the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

13 He traps the wise in their own cleverness

so their cunning schemes are thwarted.

13 He catches the wise in their own craftiness,

And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.

13 He catches the wise in their own clever traps

and sweeps away the plans of those who try to trick others.

13 He taketh the wise in their own craftiness;

And the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.

13 He taketh the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong:

13 He catches the wise with their own tricks. 

The plans of schemers prove to be hasty. 

13 He traps the wise in their craftiness

so that the plans of the deceptive

are quickly brought to an end.

13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness;

and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

13 He is capturing the wise in their craftiness,

and the schemes of the wily are rushed.

13 Some people think they are so wise.

But God catches them in their own tricks.

He sweeps away the evil plans of sinful people.

13 “He captures the wise by their own shrewdness,

And the advice of the cunning is quickly thwarted.
