'Wayward' in the Bible
Whose paths are crooked,And who are devious in their ways;
A worthless person, a wicked man,Is one who walks with a perverse (corrupt, vulgar) mouth.
He who has a crooked mind finds no good,And he who is perverted in his language falls into evil.
And Jesus answered, “You unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.”
Jesus answered, “You unbelieving and perverted generation! How long shall I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here [to Me].”
He must hold firmly to the trustworthy word [of God] as it was taught to him, so that he will be able both to give accurate instruction in sound [reliable, error-free] doctrine and to refute those who contradict [it by explaining their error].
