a straying one
| Root | שגה (š-g-h) |
| Core Meanings | straying, wandering, erring, going astray, being misled, reeling |
| Semantic Range | to wander physically, to go astray morally, to err in judgment, to sin unintentionally, to be misled, to reel as if intoxicated |
| Conceptual Significance | This root frames sin and error as wandering from a prescribed path, reflecting the biblical portrayal of covenant faithfulness as walking a straight way. A "straying one" embodies deviation from divine instruction, whether through ignorance, deception, or moral failure. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal participle, masculine singular, absolute. Functions substantivally to describe a man characterized by straying or erring. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple action of the root, "to stray" or "to err." As a masculine singular participle absolute, it denotes "one who is straying" or "a straying one," preserving both the active sense of the root and the masculine singular form indicated by the morphology. |
