"curved, crooked," was especially used

(b) metaphorically, of what is morally "crooked," perverse, froward, of people belonging to a particular generation, Act 2:40 (AV, "untoward"); Phl 2:15; of tyrannical or unjust masters, 1Pe 2:18, "froward;" in this sense it is set in contrast to agathos, "good."
