'Astray' in the Bible
O My people! Their oppressors are children,And women rule over them.O My people! Those who guide you lead you astrayAnd confuse the direction of your paths.
For those who guide this people have been leading them astray, and those who are guided by them are swallowed up.
The princes of Zoan have been fools;the princes of Memphis are deceived.Her tribal chieftains have led Egypt astray.
The Lord has mixed within her a spirit of distortion;They have led Egypt astray in all that it does,As a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
But these also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are they gone astray. The priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink; they are overpowered by wine, they are gone astray through strong drink; they have erred in vision, they have stumbled in judgment.
Moreover, those who go astray in spirit will gain understanding, and those who complain will accept instruction.'"
His breath is like an overflowing torrentthat rises to the neck.He comes to sift the nations in a sieve of destructionand to put a bridle on the jaws of the peoplesto lead them astray.
A road will be there and a way;it will be called the Holy Way.The unclean will not travel on it,but it will be for the one who walks the path.Even the fool will not go astray.
He feeds on ashes.His deceived mind has led him astray,and he cannot deliver himself,or say, “Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?”
You were secure in your wickedness;you said, ‘No one sees me.’Your wisdom and knowledgeled you astray.You said to yourself,‘I exist, and there is no one else.’
