Divers and Diverse are two words which sound the same but have very different meanings, event though they emanate from the same Latin word. Both are used in biblical text however they do have different meanings. - Diverse (adjective) is from the Latin Diversus which means turning in opposite directions. Diverse means unlike in nature or qualities (indicating uniqueness). Divers (adjective) is said to come from the same Latin word however its meaning is different from Diverse.
