| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in the absolute state (HNcmsa); no pronominal suffix; functions as a concrete or abstract noun depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֶׁקֶר (sheqer) derives from the root שקר, conveying the idea of deception or what is untrue. As a masculine singular absolute noun (HNcmsa), it is best rendered as the singular abstract “falsehood,” preserving both its grammatical form and its core sense of that which is deceitful or contrary to truth. |
