Exegesis
It is followed by the emphatic Hiphil infinitive absolute hacharesh {הַחֲרֵ֣שׁ | haḥărēš} ‘be silent’ paired with the Hiphil imperfect tacharishun {תַּחֲרִישׁ֑וּן | taḥărîšûn} ‘you would be silent’, a common Hebrew intensification strategy using the cognate infinitive absolute before a finite verb.
In context — Job 13:5
If only you would truly be silent; that would be wisdom for you.
