(Occurrence 0) the refuge of lies … the hiding place
(Some words not found in UHB: and,make justice as,measuring_line and,righteousness as,level and,sweep_away hail refuge lies and,hiding_place waters overflow )
This speaks about “lies” as if they were a place a person could go to hide. They represent what the leaders of Jerusalem trusted in to keep them safe from Yahweh’s punishment. This could mean: (1) the leaders trust in their own lies that they have said in order to protect themselves or (2) the leaders trust that the covenant they have made with the false gods of the place of the dead will keep them safe or (3) the leaders trust that the agreement they have made with the Egyptians will keep them safe. See how you translated a similar phrase in Isaiah 28:15. (See also: figs-explicit)
