worthlessness (of conduct)
Strong's Number H7723 matches the Hebrew שָׁוְא (šāv'),
which occurs 15 times in 14 verses in 'Psa'
in the WLC Hebrew.
They speak deceitful and worthless words to one another;
With flattering lips and a double heart they speak.
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to what is false,
Nor has sworn [oaths] deceitfully.
I do not sit with deceitful or unethical or worthless men,
Nor seek companionship with pretenders (self-righteous hypocrites).
I hate those who pay regard to vain (empty, worthless) idols;
But I trust in the LORD [and rely on Him with unwavering confidence].
And when one comes to see me, he speaks empty words,
While his heart gathers malicious gossip [against me];
When he goes away, he tells it [everywhere].
Give us help against the enemy,
For the help of man is worthless (ineffectual, without purpose).
Remember how fleeting my lifetime is;
For what vanity, [for what emptiness, for what futility, for what wisp of smoke] You have created all the sons of men!
Give us help against the adversary,
For deliverance by man is in vain [a worthless hope].
Turn my eyes away from vanity [all those worldly, meaningless things that distract—let Your priorities be mine],
And restore me [with renewed energy] in Your ways.
A Song of [fn]Ascents. Of Solomon.
Unless the LORD builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the LORD guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.
It is vain for you to rise early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of anxious labors—
For He gives [blessings] to His beloved even in his sleep.
Whose mouths speak deceit [without restraint],
And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
Set me free and rescue me from the hand of [hostile] foreigners,
Whose mouth speaks deceit [without restraint],
And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
