Niph`al Perfect נִחֲרוּֿ followed by בְּ Songs 1:6 (according to Bö^{ii. 379} De Kö^{1. 551}) be angry with; Participle ׳כֹּל הַנֶּחֱרִים בְּ all that are incensed against (thee) Isaiah 41:11, so Isaiah 45:24.

Hiph`il Perfect הֶחֱרָה הֶחֱזִיק Nehemiah 3:20 burned with zeal (?) in repairing, but ᵐ5 omit החרה; probably dittograph; Imperfect וַיַּחַר עָלַי אַמּוֺ Job 19:11 and kindled his anger against me.

Hithpa`el Imperfect אַל תִּתְחַר Psalm 37:1; Psalm 37:7; Psalm 37:8; Proverbs 24:19 heat oneself in vexation. — The following forms are somewhat dubious: Imperfect2masculine singular אֵיךְ תְּתַחֲרֶה אֶתהַֿסּוּסִים Jeremiah 12:5 how canst thou hotly contend (in a race) with the horses ? Participle כִּי אַתָּה מְתַחֲרֶה בָאָ֑רֶז Jeremiah 22:15 because thou strivest eagerly (to excel) in cedar; explained as Tiph`el by Thes Ges^{§ 55}, 5 Ew^{§ 122 a} Ol^{§ 255 a} Sta^{§ 159 b} Kö^{i. p. 557} and others, and regarded by most as a rare causative stem; but ag. existence of Tiph`el see Ba<sup>NB § 180 a; ZMG 1894, 20</sup>; Ba regards the form as denominative (from a noun formed by ת preform., compare Aramaic contention); SS would point as Hithpa`el [compare Syriac contend with, contention], although meaning of Hithpa`el is different, see above
