Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

נָשָׁא not used in Kal, perhaps to err, to go astray, kindred to the verb נָשָׁה to forget, from which is formed inf. absol. נָשֹׁא Jeremiah 23:39 whence Syr. ܢܘܽܫܳܝܐܳ error. [In Thes. perhaps to remove, i.q. נָסַע نشع.]

Hiphil הִשִּׁיא to lead into error, to cause to go astray, whence

(2) to seduce, to corrupt, Genesis 3:13; Jeremiah 49:16.

Niphal, to be deceived, Isaiah 19:13.
