Greek-English Concordance for ἀστήρικτος

2 Peter 2:14 They have eyes full of adultery that do not stop sinning. They seduce unstable (astēriktous | ἀστηρίκτους | acc pl fem) souls and have hearts well trained in greed. Accursed brood!
2 Peter 3:16 as he does in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters, in which are some things hard to understand, things that the ignorant and unstable (astēriktoi | ἀστήρικτοι | nom pl masc) distort to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures.
