The Key Word — מְמַשֵּׁ֣שׁ, me.ma.Sheshgenerated
The Hebrew word מָשַׁשׁ (mashash) means to feel or grope. It is often used to describe the act of searching for something in the dark or in unfamiliar surroundings. In this context, it conveys a sense of helplessness and desperation, as one tries to navigate without sight.
As a participle in the Piel form, it emphasizes the active nature of this groping. The imagery of a blind person searching in darkness evokes a profound sense of loss and confusion, underscoring the spiritual and physical blindness that results from disobedience.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
Translations generally agree on the meaning of מְמַשֵּׁ֣שׁ, with all versions reflecting the idea of groping or feeling one's way in darkness.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb הָיִ֜יתָ (you will be) governs the structure of the verse, with several phrases providing additional detail about the conditions described. The sentence begins with a temporal clause indicating the time of day, followed by a simile comparing the subject to a blind person groping in darkness.
The arrangement of the phrases emphasizes the hopelessness of the situation, with the subject's inability to prosper in their ways highlighted as a consequence of their actions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates מְמַשֵּׁ֣שׁ as ψηλαφῶν (psēlaphōn), which conveys a similar sense of groping or feeling around. This choice aligns with the Hebrew meaning but may also suggest a more active searching, reflecting the desperation of the situation.
This translation choice reinforces the theme of blindness and confusion, as the Greek word carries a connotation of seeking without clarity.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Ephrem the Syrian reflects on this verse, illustrating the spiritual blindness that can occur when one is lost in pride and error.
At times when we were in error, mired in the pride of our mind as if with our feet in the mud, we did not perceive our error because our soul was unable to see itself.Early Church Fathers on Deuteronomy 28 →

When men find it no longer possible to follow the word of God, it is written that “the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.” Oppressed.—The children of Israel and of Judah were “oppressed “together (Jeremiah 50:33). But it is added, “Their Redeemer is strong” (Deuteronomy 28:34). Spoiled.—The word occurs again in Deuteronomy 28:31 : “Violently taken away.”

And still they grope at noon day, as the blind gropeth in darkness-they do not yet discover, notwithstanding the effulgence of the light by which they are encompassed, that the rejection of their own Messiah is the cause of all their calamities.

From the Latin
And mayst thou grope at midday as the blind is wont to grope in the dark, and not make straight thy ways. And mayst thou at all times suffer wrong, and be oppressed with violence, and mayst thou have no one to deliver thee.
Simplified
so that even at noon you will be groping around like a blind man in the dark. You won't be successful in what you do. You'll be persecuted and robbed the whole time, and no one will come and save you.
You will go feeling your way when the sun is high, like a blind man for whom all is dark, and nothing will go well for you: you will be crushed and made poor for ever, and you will have no saviour.

The Masoretic Text is supported by the Septuagint, which retains much of the original wording. The Samaritan Pentateuch differs slightly, changing דְּרָכֶ֑יךָ to דרכך and אַ֣ךְ to רק, indicating a variation in the phrasing but not in the overall meaning.
