hāst ( חפז , ḥāphaz , חוּשׁ , ḥūsh , מהר , māhar ; σπεύδω , speúdō ): "Haste" (from a root meaning "to pursue") implies "celerity of motion."
(1) The noun occurs as translation of māhar , "to hasten," etc. ( Exodus 10:16; Exodus 12:33 , "in haste"); of ḥāphaz , "to make haste" ( 2 Kings 7:15; Psalm 31:22; Psalm 116:11 , "I said in my haste (the Revised Version margin "alarm"), All men are liars"); of ḥippāzōn , a "hasty flight" ( Exodus 12:11; Deuteronomy 16:3; Isaiah 52:12 ); of nāḥac , "to be urgent" ( 1 Samuel 21:8 , "The king's business required haste").
(2) "Haste" as a verb is transitive and intrans; instances of the transitive use are, 'ūc , "to hasten," "press" ( Exodus 5:13 , "And the taskmasters hasted them," the Revised Version (British and American) "were urgent"); ḥūsh , "to make haste" ( Isaiah 5:19 ); māhar ( 2 Chronicles 24:5 twice); shāḳadh , "to watch," "to fix one's attention" on anything ( Jeremiah 1:12 the King James Version, "I will hasten my word"); māhı̄r , "hasting" ( Isaiah 16:5 , "hasting righteousness," the Revised Version (British and American) "swift to do"). The intransitive use is more frequent and represents many different words.
