The Key Word — שָׁוְא, Shav'generated
The Hebrew word שָׁוְא (shav) signifies emptiness or vanity, often used to describe falsehood or deception. It conveys the idea of something that lacks substance or truth, particularly in moral or spiritual contexts. In this verse, it emphasizes the misleading nature of the visions being offered.
This word is often associated with the empty promises of false prophets, indicating that their messages are devoid of truth and ultimately lead to destruction. The usage of שָׁוְא here underscores the gravity of the situation for those who listen to such deceitful words.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the verse uses false to describe the visions, aligning with the KJV and ASV, which also emphasize the deceptive nature of the prophecies.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains several clauses, with the main action centered on the verbs relating to the false prophets' actions. The finite verbs חֲז֥וֹת (to see) and קְסָם (to divine) govern the structure, indicating what the prophets are doing.
The syntax highlights the relationship between the false visions and the judgment that follows, with prepositional phrases providing context for the actions described.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates שָׁוְא with the Greek word ἀναμνήσατε, which implies a call to remember or recall. This choice suggests an interpretation that emphasizes the importance of recognizing the falsehoods being presented.
This rendering shows a slight shift in focus from the emptiness of the visions to a warning against forgetting the truth amidst deception.
