Go astray (3)

Ross

I think it could be either:

err

sin

'go astray' is the definition.
(to err is to make an error or go the wrong way)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for err that I've seen before include "Sin" , "Slip up" , "Drop a clanger" , "'to... is human,to forgive divine'" , "Go wrong" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Penny Press, The Wall Street Journal, The Times, the King Feature Syndicate, The Telegraph, the LA Times and the Newsday.
