It conveys the act of speaking falsehoods or engaging in deceitful behavior. This term is often used in the context of false testimony, deceitful practices, or unfaithfulness in relationships, whether with God or among people.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, truthfulness was a highly valued virtue, rooted in the character of God Himself, who is described as a God of truth. The act of lying or deceit was not only a breach of social trust but also a violation of the covenant relationship with God. The commandment "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor" (Exodus 20:16) underscores the importance of truthfulness in maintaining justice and community integrity.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>denominative verb from <a href="/hebrew/8267.htm">sheqer</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to do or deal falsely<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>deal falsely (4), dealt falsely (1), lie (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">שָׁקַר</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb denominative</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>do or deal falsely</b></font>; — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Qal</b></font> <em>Imperfect</em>2masculine singular; <font class="hebrew2">תִּשְׁקֹר</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/21-23.htm">Genesis 21:23</a> <em>thou wilt not do falsely</em> to me (<font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">לִ</font>). <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Pi`el</b></font> <em>Perfect</em>1plural <font class="hebrew2">שִׁקַּ֫רְ נוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/44-18.htm">Psalm 44:18</a>; <em>Imperfect</em>3masculine singular <font class="hebrew2">יְשַׁקֵּר</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/15-29.htm">1 Samuel 15:29</a>; 3masculine plural <font class="hebrew2">יְשַׁקֵּ֑רוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/63-8.htm">Isaiah 63:8</a>, etc; — <em>deal falsely</em> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/15-29.htm">1 Samuel 15:29</a>; <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/63-8.htm">Isaiah 63:8</a>, with <font class="hebrew2">ב</font> person <a href="/interlinear/leviticus/19-11.htm">Leviticus 19:11</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">כחשׁ</font>); with <font class="hebrew2">ב</font> of thing <a href="/interlinear/psalms/44-18.htm">Psalm 44:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/89-34.htm">Psalm 89:34</a>. <p><font class="hebrew2">שֹׁקֶת</font>, <font class="hebrew2">שִׁקֲתוֺת</font> see <font class="hebrew2">שׁקה</font>. <font class="hebrew2">שֹׁר</font>see <font class="hebrew2">שׁרר</font>. <p><font class="hebrew2">שַׁרְאֶ֫צֶר</font> </p><p style="sub1"> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> see <font class="hebrew2">שַׂרְאֶ֫צֶר</font> <p><font class="hebrew2">שׁרב</font> (√ of following, <em>parch</em>; Late Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">שָׁרַב</font> <em>be scorched</em> (by sun), <font class="hebrew2">שָׁרָב</font> <em>parching heat</em> (of sun); Ecclus 43:22 <font class="hebrew2">דש ן שרב</font> <em>parched grass</em>; Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">שְׁרב</font>, <font class="hebrew2">שְׁרֵיב</font>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb105504.gif">, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb105505.gif">, <em>be parched</em>, <font class="hebrew2">שְׁרב</font> <em>heat, drought:</em> compare probably also Assyrian proper name, of divinity <i><em>Šarrabu(-pu)</em></i> Zim<sup>KAT3. 415</sup>; > compare Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb105506.gif"> <em>mirage</em> [Rob<sup>BR i. 42</sup>] Ges<sup>Isaiah 35:7</sup> and others; see against this especially Che<sup>Introd.
