and may he cause to turn aside

Rootסור (s-w-r)
Core Meaningsturning aside, departing, removing, withdrawing, deviation
Semantic Rangeto turn aside, depart, withdraw, remove, take away, avert, put aside, rebel, decline
Conceptual Significanceסור often marks decisive movement away from a path—whether physical departure or moral/spiritual turning. In covenantal contexts it can describe turning from evil or the removal of blessing or presence, highlighting the dynamic relationship between obedience and divine action.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + Hiphil jussive, 3rd masculine singular, from סור. The Hiphil stem gives a causative nuance; the jussive expresses wish, purpose, or intended result.
Rendering RationaleThe root סור conveys the idea of turning aside, departing, or removing. In the Hiphil stem it takes a causative sense, "to cause to turn aside" or "to remove." The form is a 3rd masculine singular jussive with prefixed conjunction, so "and may he cause to turn aside" preserves both the causative force and the masculine singular subject.
