dē̇ -sēt ´ (מרמה , mirmāh ; δόλος , dólos ): The intentional misleading or beguiling of another; in Scripture represented as a companion of many other forms of wickedness, as cursing (Psalm 10:7 ), hatred (Proverbs 26:24 ), theft, covetousness, adultery, murder (Mark 7:22; Romans 1:29 ). The Revised Version (British and American) introduces the word in Proverbs 14:25; 2 Thessalonians 2:10; but in such passages as Psalm 55:11; Proverbs 20:17; Proverbs 26:26; 1 Thessalonians 2:3 , renders a variety of words, more accurately than the King James Version, by "oppression," "falsehood," "guile," "error.»
