Deuteronomy 32:5

His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.

In context

3 For I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Ascribe greatness to our God!

4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.

5 His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.

6 Is this how you repay the LORD, O foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and Creator? Has He not made you and established you?

7 Remember the days of old; consider the years long past. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will inform you.
