This is exact English-word usage from the canonical KJV token index, not a Strong's estimate.

ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

They imagine deceits all the day long. Psalms 38:12.

3. In scripture, that which is obtained by guile, fraud or oppression.

4. In law, any trick, device, craft, collusion, shift, covin, or underhand practice, used to defraud another.
