'Crooked' in the Bible

“They (Israel) have acted corruptly toward Him.They are not His children, because of their [moral] defect;But are a perverse and crooked generation.

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways [in unresponsiveness to God],The Lord will lead them away with those who do evil.Peace be upon Israel.

The Lord protects the strangers;He supports the fatherless and the widow;But He makes crooked the way of the wicked.

Whose paths are crooked,And who are devious in their ways;

“All the words of my mouth are in righteousness (upright, in right standing with God);There is nothing contrary to truth or perverted (crooked) in them.

He who walks in integrity and with moral character walks securely,But he who takes a crooked way will be discovered and punished.

He who has a crooked mind finds no good,And he who is perverted in his language falls into evil.

The way of the guilty is [exceedingly] crooked,But as for the pure, his conduct is upright.

What is crooked cannot be straightened and what is defective and lacking cannot be counted.

Consider the work of God:Who can make straight what He has bent?

“Every valley shall be raised,And every mountain and hill be made low;And let the rough ground become a plain,And the rugged places a broad valley.

“I will go before you and level the mountains;I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.

They do not know the way of peace,And there is no justice in their tracks.They have made them into crooked paths;Whoever walks on them does not know peace.

He has blocked my ways with cut stone;He has made my paths crooked.
