(Some words not found in UHB: prophets_of,your seen_~_visions to/for=you(fs) false and,sham and=not exposed on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in iniquity_of,your to,turn_back שבית,ך and,they_have_seen to/for=you(fs) oracles_of false and,enticement(s) )
The terms falsehood and worthlessness mean similar things. The writer is using the two terms together to emphasize that what the prophets claimed to see had no truth or value. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [things that were completely misleading]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
עֲוֺנֵ֖ךְ
iniquity_of,your
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of iniquity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the ways you sinned]

(Some words not found in UHB: prophets_of,your seen_~_visions to/for=you(fs) false and,sham and=not exposed on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in iniquity_of,your to,turn_back שבית,ך and,they_have_seen to/for=you(fs) oracles_of false and,enticement(s) )
The terms falsehood and enticement are paired to characterize the prophets’ deceptive messages as both untrue and misleadingly appealing. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express this with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [utterly false visions]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
