It is used to describe acts of lewdness, depravity, or wicked schemes. Context: The Hebrew term זִמָּה (zimmah) is frequently encountered in the Old Testament, where it is used to describe plans or schemes that are morally reprehensible. The word is often associated with sexual immorality or other forms of wickedness. For instance, in Leviticus 18:17, it is used in the context of forbidden sexual relations: "You must not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. You must not marry her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter and have sexual relations with her. They are close relatives; it is wickedness (זִמָּה)." Similarly, in Ezekiel 16:27, it is used to describe the lewdness of Jerusalem: "So I stretched out My hand against you, reduced your portion, and gave you over to the desire of your enemies, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your lewd conduct (זִמָּה)."
