They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.

Verse 5 is found in chapter 32 of Deuteronomy. The Song of Moses begins by calling heaven and earth as witnesses. God is presented as a perfect rock, righteous and faithful, while Israel appears as a people who respond to received goodness with corruption. The poem reviews God’s election, protection, and provision to show that future apostasy cannot be attributed to any failure of divine faithfulness.

Die verkehrte und böse Art fällt von ihm ab; sie sind Schandflecken und nicht seine Kinder.
La corrupción no es suya: a sus hijos la mancha de ellos, Generación torcida y perversa.
S'ils se sont corrompus, à lui n'est point la faute; La honte est à ses enfants, Race fausse et perverse.
Esso si è corrotto inverso lui; Il lor vizio non è di figliuoli suoi; Egli è una generazione perversa e storta.
Corromperam-se contra ele; não são seus filhos, mas a sua mancha; geração perversa e distorcida é.
這乖僻彎曲的世代 向他行了敗壞的事; 因著他們的弊病, 不再是他的兒女。
